There was a ton of booze at every graduate student open house, and I partied with a lot of the current grad students, as well as the prospectives. At one school, the faculty had beer brought to the poster session. It made taking my GRE's worth it.

Anything neuro is awesome. You could potentially get a job someday related to AI speech programming, if you wanted.

The free drinks are awesome! Out of all the schools I visited Brown was the craziest with this. They gave us like 4 drink tickets each for dinner alone, and then we went to a bar afterwards and drank more...it was ridiculous lol.

Apparently most people looking to survive graduate school drink heavily, at least occasionally.
