Critical thinking and intellectual curiosity are two superpowers most people don't possess.

Don't lie on a resume. Great experience to share. Thanks, Steve.

Thanks Steve.

But, my question is did you do that part of a semester or whatever it was for a short time at the University of Michigan, or Michigan State University?

These are both fine schools and I have heard you introduced with an early connection to both.

I attended MSU myself.

First job you get might be because of your school, the rest of it used to be on the merit of your performance. We had a guy on the Board of Directors at CME (back in the mid 1990s)who faked his resume. He had no reason to. Said he went to the University of Chicago when the truth was he only lived near the University of Chicago. He had to resign in disgrace.
