Are there any colleges or universities that you refuse to hire from?

It’s also apparently totally okay to discriminate against single moms and military personnel who go to online schools while working full time jobs and raising a family, because the school they went to runs commercials on daytime television. I wonder if the same people on these threads making obnoxious statements about online programs are on other threads screaming that there is no loss of productivity in telework.

Military personnel have the GI Bill to go to basically any 4-year, brick & mortar college or university they want upon an honorable discharge. I don’t feel any sympathy, sorry.

That is very unfortunate for single moms, but their incomes might qualify them for Pell Grants (up to $7500/year), community college is free in some jurisdictions & public universities usually options to schedule classes at various times throughout the day & evening. Also, they can take a smattering of online classes through such a school, and nobody will bat an eye.

Go to a real school.

Wow. You must be a very good and empathetic boss. I’m sure you’re fantastic at your job. Your coworkers must love you.

I hope you go into an office every day, since no real things happen online.

The military can’t possibly make it easier & cheaper for veterans to go to a real college. There is no excuse not to.

As for single mothers, the issues they might face are unfortunate but by no means new. People will respect you more if you go to a real college like people have done for many, many years in that situation.

It's hard to attend a 'real college' while deployed. Meanwhile schools that most people look down on do everything possible to allow sailors at sea and deployed soldiers to attend

Thankfully, Christians attend a variety of universities. Nice try though. Don’t choose to go to a controversial university.

The bigotry, for example, against Liberty Univ grads is without a question based on their perceived religious beliefs. Nice try!

Lol no. Google their “biology” curriculum. They use workbooks.

The intent has nothing to do with a textbook. It's the religion. This post hoc rationalization would be transparent in litigation.

FCPS has no books according to this thread. Maybe universities shouldn't take them. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1111832.page

College name is not a protected class. If it is, every Radford or Salisbury student, ever, should sue McKinsey & Company for systemic discrimination.

It's the practice of not hiring based on religion that is prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Getting to that intent is what discovery of things like emails, texts, and depositions is for.

Where are you getting this from? I’ll hire a student of any religion who attended any college BUT Liberty. No discrimination there.

Correct, it’s impossible to do so. That’s why you wait until you get out of the military & go to a real school on the GI Bill. No rush.

Adults voluntarily choose where to go to college, and if they should go.

And it's the choice of school that is the issue. It shows bad judgment.

Lots of great people with degrees from University of Phoenix, BYU, Hillsdale, even Oberlin. But never, never, never, never, anyone from Colorado College.

What is wrong with Colorado College?

Religious scam unis, like Liberty.

Lots of students attend Liberty and other religious schools for cost and convenience. They avoid religious aspects and focus on rest of the education. It would be unfair to discriminate against them. If any, they add some intellectual diversity to these schools and develop good insight about what's going on there. They can become reformers, when given a chance.

Well, their career center needs an upgrade. The resumes I see coming out of places like Liberty might as well be a handwritten scrawl on a napkin. Pure trash. I'm willing to keep an open mind, but again, you need to compete.

Well, if your judgment is based on bad resumes, that’s valid.

I probably do have my biases against these schools, but I've also never seen a great resume from one so it's not exactly discrimination either. They need to do better. They're not sending out their graduates into the world appearing prepared.

We can’t help sometimes the biases we carry, but we can help how we act on them. If they send bad resumes, it doesn’t matter where they went to school.

I worked with 2 people early in my career that went to the University of Central Florida. They were both bigots and both useless at work. One was a female minority and one was a white male. The white male was bigoted against me personally. I was friendly with the Mom of the other and later learned the daughter was pretty racist against her boss….because I went to work for him.

As much as I disliked these people and thought they were both unskilled and nasty, I would not assume all graduates from that school are reflective of their example, particularly so many years later.

Conversely, I’ve had a couple fantastic coworkers who went to Mason. One was clearly not well educated in the subject matter but wow did he make up for it in work ethic and interpersonal skill. I now have a good opinion of people who went to Mason, because I feel the school may not be great but it attracts students interested in getting their work done and starting a career. It’s been my experience. I’m sure some people graduate from there and are terrible to work with, and also don’t have the education. But, my bias is positive. It works in all directions. Each applicant should have a set of qualifications that go into the consideration. It should never be one factor.

Mason is actually a very good school, especially for majors that are integrated with local businesses and agencies, like education for example. Mason is actually my go-to school for hiring. I have never been let down. And before I was doing the hiring, it was the preferred school for my bosses, and that was because the candidates already knew how things are done in our industry in the DMV.

The people who can afford to hire Harvard grads are just as obnoxious and self-important, so it works out.

Isn't this just a Harvard student stereotype though rather than the reality? I am genuinely asking.

+1. HYP grad. Who do you think hires us and where do you think we apply? I'm a previous poster who said I wouldn't work somewhere where the C-suite was from lower tier colleges. We probably wouldn't get along, and they probably couldn't afford me.

I think we can put this discussion on hold until you have those 'airtight' Liberty resumes a PP mentioned. We'll all probably be dead by then. And that is because only dummies with poor judgment would go to Liberty. You realize there are crazy evangelicals at the top schools in the country right? Studying under some other crazy famous evangelicals?
