I still say he didn't say the "A" and he messed up the quote. The quote obviously makes more sense to add in the "A", but unless by indiscernable you mean not pronounced.BGFan wrote:The actual quote is "One small step for A man, one GIANT leap for man kind."
The "A" was almost indiscernable on the broadcast but was there.

Perhaps if you're going to Purdue for Engineering, since Purdue is usually ranked around the top 10 in the nation, then I can see going to Purdue being important. Purdue has very good business school, but from what I hear is that Purdue is not the most presitigous school even in the midwest. If you want a prestigious degree in business, then you need to go to Haaarvard, Stanford, Penn or MIT. The top midwestern schools are Northwestern, Chicago, Michigan and even OSU.BGSUFootballFan wrote:I just assumed that it was a better academic achievement to get a degree from Purdue University than it was to get one from Bowling Green. Apparently I was completely wrong. I just always assumed when heading into the business world a degree from a prestigous school like Purdue would sound better than one from Bowling Green... is that in Kentucky? Keep up the 2.7 GPA's y'all.
IMO, it doesn't really matter to much beyond the top-tier schools becasue after this point a college degree is usually looked upon as degree that hopefully means that you can think on your own, but not to much being that its a business degree and all. Never assume.BGSUFootballFan wrote:I just assumed that it was a better academic achievement to get a degree from Purdue University than it was to get one from Bowling Green.

Hey, don't take anything personal. Your posts have been pretty good and thought out, so no one is taking offense to anything you say. However, when you have a trait like not using punctuation and then you do, some people are going to point it out and make a little joke. Most guys are pretty sarcastic here to begin with. That and quite a few have journalism/english/education backgrounds (I just write a lot of papers), it comes natural to them to edit things. From the time I have talked with TG, I know didn't mean anything personal, and has recently just pulled the same stuff on me. Sling it back at him. A little university joking is to be expected as well but isn't meant in harm. Wait for miamibando to come back, we go back and forth with him all the time.BGSUFootballFan wrote:I love you all. seriously.. Can we please stop the nit picking and the "well i would have done or said this" im not going to change my punctuation b/c its a frickin forum, if its too hard for you to read then please dont strain yourself, for all others lets start a new.
