Neat, I like the philosophy. I wonder if they still stick to it, or if they've also become a robot factory over time.

I like to think they've more or less stuck with it. :) There are definitely forces at work that try to water it down by, for example, introduce proposals to dumb down the core curriculum. The good news is that most MIT trustees have sense enough to know that these things will only devalue their own degrees. :P
