      Pros

      Some of the best people in the world are here, and the most up to date technology is at your fingertips.

      Cons

      MIT is a sometimes dreary place where people seem to be just getting by emotionally, rather than thriving as you might expect given the resources available. Laughter and whimsy seem to be in short supply.
