Trying to connect MUN community and NS community here...

I'm kinda curious, I remember in another topic someone noticed I was a Newfoundlander and I mentioned that I was a MUN student and that person mentioned how MUN is good for engineering... and, well, I'm guessing MUN is fairly well known even outside of Canada since it has a lot of international students, has quite a few videos from it on YouTube, its info book mentions certain programs being internationally acclaimed, etc... so I'd like to ask, what do other NSers know about MUN? Who here has heard of it, (since obviously the person who commented on it being good for engineering would have heard of it) seen it personally, or is themself a student of it?

Anyway yeah, MUN means in this case Memorial University of Newfoundland, and while it actually has a few different campuses I'm referring to the main one known as the "St. John's campus" even though MI is also in St. John's...

Ironically I post this after coming back to Gander from MUN for the weekend.

I had really known anything about MUN after working at Fort McMurray, Alberta.

Fort McMurray has more Newfies than Newfoundland.

Despite having a way smaller overall population than Newfoundland?

Despite having a way smaller overall population than Newfoundland?Nah, I'd say they are pretty close.

But for a town in Alberta, only about 5% of people where born and raised in Alberta.

The bulk or Newfoundlanders, Maritimers, and the people of the Prairies.
