SMU dean to engineering students: “Stop whining”
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
SMU engineering dean Geoffrey Orsak has written an interesting piece in Design News, Top 5 Reasons to Stop Whining (here). The article is a reaction to another article Top 5 Reasons Studying Engineering Sucks. Dean Orsak’s list is as follows:
5. Get to know a few of your engineering faculty well — you will be impressed.
4. Become fully engaged in the big world now so you can see firsthand how much people really do need your talents and efforts.
3. This is YOUR education — go grab it wherever YOU must.
2. Work harder than you need to and care about something bigger than yourself.
1. Finish what you started.
