Only at Tech is a site resembling the new array of web sites that allow visitors to contribute to the main page by adding in their own thoughts, stories, or ideas. It is one that is special to the students or to the general community of the people involved with Georgia Tech. When visiting the site, you will see that the whole page is just filled with different bubbles where people have submitted their ideas. There are also categories of topics in which you can submit that include classes, food, fraternities, girls, nerds, RATS/freshman, sports, and lastly, miscellaneous.
It would be hard not to at least giggle when scrolling through all of the posts that you see when visiting the site. Most likely, the reason that you will let out a little chuckle is because that you will be somehow be able to relate. This relation is what helps build this strong Tech community. There is a reason why the people that go to Georgia Tech go to Georgia Tech. It is that we all have some sort of nerd in our inner core and therefore we all feel perfectly in place as a student here at Tech.
Here are a few example of posts that you can find on the site:
"When I'm in the shower, I think about Bernoulli's Principle. Most of you will know why. Only at Tech."
"Freshman year, there was a board game night for my dorm hall. What did I learn? There is a precise order for removing pieces from Jenga that results in maximum stability; everyone at Tech can figure it out as they play; and they can even predict the point at which no more pieces can be removed. Only at Tech."
"I was at a GT football game when I heard 2 students talking about our offense. He explained that our triple offense was the "derivative" of the speed option. Only at Tech"
