No one abroad has any idea what Pomona or Williams are. No rankings of any academic kind has them on top. It's really crazy that we are even discussing this.

Unless you are going abroad to follow be a job it doesn't matter. The people who are hiring you here in the US are well aware of these schools.

More and more people will be going abroad for jobs. Also more and more companies hiring in the US will be foreign companies.

Really? Evidence? Or are you sprouting off?

That's funny. Going abroad for a job that only requires a bachelor's degree.

While I agree with #7, and it does give me pause when considering which colleges DC should attend, if the news of this past year is any indication, this is becoming just as big of an issue at Yale, UCLA, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz and other bid public institutions.

Evidence is called globalization. Somehow provincial Americans think they are above it.

Globalization means foreign companies are coming to AWS because their search for talent knows no bounds.

Yet immigration rules make this quite difficult in many developed countries who are struggling with high unemployment rates. Perhaps more opportunities in developing countries. What does the data show on where these jobs are located?

Who is this repeat poster who keeps talking about AWS? It's Amherst and Williams. That's it. Swarthmore doesn't get nearly the same level of recruiting. Heck, the Claremont Colleges and Bowdoin/Middlebury do better.

No different than referring to " the Ivies " when it includes Cornell and Dartmouth.

No, Americans, especially college-educated Americans, know that they aren't where global corporations look for cheap labor.

Rich kids that go to elite LAS don't care about on-campus recruiting. They're connected. And like 75% of these classes enter law or medical school or PhD program. The other 25% probably pick up MBA or masters a couple years down the line.
