[quote=Anonymous]I believe a person can receive an excellent education at most colleges. However, historically students who graduated from elite universities have had a distinct advantage when applying to graduate schools which them led to higher percentages of their grads enjoying prestigious and lucrative careers. I think this is changing. College admissions are becoming so competitive these days that tier 2 schools are also loaded with very smart and capable students who will one day manage Fortune 500 companies and they will be hiring graduates from their Alma maters as well. Also, many students in the future will be attending colleges on line. So the special quality of attending "elite colleges" is beginning to diminish. Don't get me wrong, Harvard will not be going out of business next week, but in 30 years attending Harvard will not be nearly as revered as it is today. [/quote]
