I don't know...it was the dark ages (2003?) when I was in grad school, but I wasn't so beat down that I wouldn't have been able to join a sorority (or relax for that matter). I was taking 21 hours each semester. I went through a competitive program at a tough school...maybe I was doing something wrong?
I got a job, though, and I just presented my thesis at a major conference in my field.
The rest of my philosophy on AI, however, is well-documented on this board, so I don't feel the need to repeat it.
