You're very good at picking out one part of a post and no back-up info.
You must work for NBC

Explain to me how it will not be.
Is the discipline of engineering different at MIT than it is at LSU. Do fluids, statics, thermo's, dynamics, physics, mathematics, etc. all perform differently in Massachusetts vs. Louisiana?
No. the difference is at MIT they want you to graduate and get a high paying job. They do everything in their power to help you. I know people that went to MIT, Stanford, and even Tulane and they agree with me.
At LSU they couldn't give frick as long as they meet their enrollment/accredidation requirements.

You laugh, but there is a certain amount of merit to this argument. An MIT degree will open more doors for you than an LSU degree and will start you off somewhat near the top, but it won't keep you there if you end up being a frick up.
By contrast, that same frick up would never make it through 4 years in LSU engineering. If you can't hack it they'll just flunk you right out. They DGAF about their "sterling graduation rates" that schools like MIT do.
ETA; I still don't see too many frick ups even getting through the door at MIT though
