Notre Dame has a strong student and alum community. Kids looking at Berkeley are not considering Notre Dame unless they are from the midwest. |

Not PP, but despite the hate Tulane gets on DCUM, literally all the Tulane grads I know are crazy smart, extroverted/friendly, and involved in their community. I can see why an employer would value these things. I have no connection to Tulane. |

+1000. This is a weird ND person. Great school and all, but seriously to try and say its better than Cal is moronic. |

Exactly this. Cal is very, very highly thought of, nation-wide, but especially on the east coast (where it is harder to get in). I speak from personal experience - Cal grad that gets amazing opportunities in DC. If you kid can get in, GO! |

| As someone hiring for entry-level positions. I give a bump for local schools because those candidates tend to be more attached to this geographical area (so they might still leave for another position or grad school, but there is less "I miss my family on the west coast and I'm out). I've really encouraged our staff to put less emphasis on the prestige of education and more emphasis on personality and fit. We can train people to build skills but we can't change people who come in overly fearful of taking initiative, timid, resentful of authority. We had a Havard grad on staff who was an absolute toxic nightmare and I think that brought more people around to my point of view. |

I think the only one searching hard is the one who is trying to propel ND as a school equal to Berkeley. |

Cal's reputation is based more on research and graduate schools, not undergrad. |

What next?! "ND is better than Northwestern!" Good lord. |
