[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consider the time gap between your first job and your son's.  There is a generation of difference.  Your comparison is wrong.   There are many more highly advanced companies (applying technologies that didn't exist when you were studying or got your first job).  He may not want to apply to your company after his graduation.  You should really compare the courses, the faculty, the peer group, the labs, the internship opportunities, the reputation, the employers visiting the campus for recruiting, the potential job/career trajectories of recent graduates and current students of CS of the two universities and determine if $200K extra is worth it for you and your son.[/quote]

Are you kidding me?  You are talking peanuts compared to $200K in debt.  People that actually think the name of their college means something and is worth the extra $200K are the type of people, no wants to hire.  We aren't talking politics, finance, etc..  This is computer science.   :roll: [/quote]
