[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, duh?? Wealthy, high achieving people produce wealthy, high achieving children. SHOCKER!! That has nothing to do with the college.

What's more interesting is [b]the colleges that can take low income students and propel them into higher brackets[/b]. Here's that list.

Top performers on social mobility, per US News:
- Keiser University
- UC-Riverside
- CSU-Long Beach
- Florida International University 
- UC-Merced
- University of LaVerne
- CSU Fullerton
- Oakland City University
- Rutgers University Newark
- UC Irvine
- UIC Chicao
- CUNY City College
- CSU San Bernadino
- Russell Sage College
- San Francisco State
- UC Santa Barbara
- Chatham University
- UC Santa Cruz
- UNC Greensboro

Not a single top 50 college on the list until all the way down to number 46, which is UCLA. University of Florida is #75. UC Berkeley #105.

[b]Elite private schools? No where to be found until you scroll reaaaally far down. NYU is #140. Princeton is #186.[/b] [/quote]

So, the lesson is: low income students should not go to the elite private schools, if they want to become wealthy.  [/quote]
