Lewd special satirical article: Michigan Tech’s new aerospace engineers explain how they definitely aren’t going to work in the Military-industrial complex.

Michigan Tech will soon be starting a new Aerospace Engineering program to trick would-be mechanical engineers into working for the military-industrial complex.
One of the new students, Amy Stake, explained, “I have always been fascinated by space travel, and I want to work on the cutting edge of technology.” The aerospace degree is explained as the best way to join the reignited space race, but most descriptions don’t explain how to get the minimum 3 to 5 years of experience in a relevant field to work for any of the major space companies. Many are not dissuaded by this, Joe King explains. “I mean, there are now five other aerospace companies that do non-military stuff. I am sure it will be fine.” According to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, it is not fine, as aerospace engineers are 4th most unemployed major at 7.8%, sitting in between Fine Arts and History in the ranking.
