In summary, the conversation discusses the topic of the Waterloo school and its Physics and Nanotechnology programs. One person recommends avoiding the school if your name is Napoleon, while another mentions that U of T also offers a nanotechnology program through their Engineering Science program. There is some speculation as to why there are not many responses to the question.

Waterloo seems like a nice school and I was wondering if anyone has gone there and taken either the Physics or Nanotechnology programs (both undergrad.)

*dodges boot thrown at me*

umm... by the lack of responses, i'd guess that people either don't know much about it or that people who do know about it aren't responding. :grumpy:

I think U of T also offers a nanotechnology program if you take Engineering Science. You will be able to choose Nano as your option in third year.
