Re: Universities in the US

["Eric de Groot" <complanglisp@ericdegroot.com>]

When you say New York I'm assuming you'll be in the city, and not upstate
somewhere.  If so, don't forget to check out jersey.  Right across the river
there's Stevens IT (http://www.stevens-tech.edu/) in hoboken, and in newark
you've got NJIT (http://www.njit.edu/) and also Rutgers Newark which I've
heard has a pretty decent cs program too.  NJIT's cs program starts with
c++.  All are a short train ride away from nyc.
