[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer OP question, football schools Bama and Clemson are perceived as football schools, not as elite schools.  However, they are not without other known benefits, things like Bama scholarships, honors dorms, and in person classes.

The reputation of a particular college somewhere out in the middle of the country isn't particularly important in the big picture.  What matters is the reputation among employers/grad schools and whether college reputation tends to be considered in the particular field of work.

THis.

Also the Big Ten schools collectively have hundreds of thousands of students.  They also have some of the top degree programs in the country--so they're really nothing to sneeze at.  You don't have to go to Harvard to be successful.  You can also go to your "local" Big Ten, graduate from a top program, and do well.

It really is only DCUM that is obsessed.

Community colleges have many successful grads. Better value for your money in the first two years than big ten. Stop chasing prestige. [/quote]
