MIT Wins Alex Doonesbury
It's official: Alex Doonesbury is heading for MIT this fall.
As noted earlier in this blog, "Doonesbury" creator Garry Trudeau invited Slate.com readers to vote on-line to determine which of three schools the 17-year-old aspiring engineer would attend.
The final results are in, and they are (after some controversy over how to deal with script-driven schemes to stuff the ballot box):
MIT - 48%
Rensselaer Technical Institute - 32%
Cornell - 19%
Cornell students insist their school would have fared better in the poll if they had not been too preoccupied with finals to come up with their own vote-rigging script.
