Welcome to the '''RPI Wiki''', an in-progress project to catalog [[Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute]]'s rich history and provide lasting resources for new and returning RPI students.

RPI is the oldest engineering school in the Western Hemisphere, with 200 years of history. Its student life has evolved immensely in that time, and throughout its history it has been the ''alma mater'' of countless leading engineers and a flashpoint for political activism and student rights. It has the oldest continously-existing student government in the United States in the [[Rensselaer Union]], and its model for polytechnic education informed the American engineering schools that came after it.

RPI is the oldest engineering school in the Western Hemisphere, with over 200 years of history. Its student life has evolved immensely in that time, and throughout its history it has been the ''alma mater'' of countless leading engineers and a flashpoint for political activism and student rights. It has the oldest continously-existing all-student government in the United States in the [[Rensselaer Union]], and its model for polytechnic education informed the American engineering schools that came after it.

The RPI Wiki is a project intending to write this history down, from the Institute's proudest moments to its darkest, while also providing a resource for students akin to the various "Student Handbooks" or "Student Guides" of prior years. In this way, the RPI Wiki can serve as a resource to students, faculty, alumni, and prospective students, and make our Institute's history last forever.
