The end result will likely be a set of technology that looks similar to the current technology set, just with a different look and feel on top of a fundamentally rearchitected platform typically costing millions of dollars.

Contrasted with the Carlson School of Management and the College of Liberal Arts, the Institute of Technology (IT) is populated by people who don't deserve to be kicked in the balls (Carlson students do; CLA students have none to be kicked).
