5 Years Later: Things I Learned at Michigan Tech

The fall semester has arrived and campus is buzzing with the start of a new school year. It’s the perfect time to revisit and celebrate the fifth anniversary of one of our all-time favorite posts, Things I Learned at Michigan Tech.

Because some things you really have to experience to understand, Things I Learned at Michigan Tech is an inspired collection of Tech wisdom, laugh-out-loud memories, and heartfelt comments from Huskies around the world.

Take a moment to dive back in, enjoy the memories, and join us as we kick off a new semester by sharing your own nuggets of Tech wisdom in the comments.
