michigan technological university 

An engineering school located in a small town in the U.P. Houghton, Michigan. If you think you’ll have free time, think again. Because of the massive workload, students resolve to drinking in mass quantities to cope. The student board thought introducing broomball and Winter Carnival would solve the issue, but tech students see it as an excuse for getting hammered before playing in the snow that doesn’t melt until April. When you do have free time, you go to brockway mountain for the hundredth time if you don’t ski or snowboard. You’re lucky if you join the husky pep band, you get to let out your angst through singing inappropriate songs at sporting events and wearing something you found at the dump on your head.

Michigan Technological University is not a place for everybody

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
