[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The partner I work for at my law firm, who is also the head of our department went to a law school I had never even heard of. Obviously it didn't prevent him from getting far in life. [/quote]

Lots of partners at my biglaw firm from St Johns -- which I think is a 4th tier local NYC school. I'm not suggested it prevented them from getting far in their career, but I do share the OP's views esp every single time when one of those partners talks about his kid going to Villanova or Temple. These are people who can pay 60k+ per year for any school in the country, but most of the time the kids are no where close to being Ivy or Top 10 material.[/quote]

Oh, I've heard of St. Johns. This partner went to a school that wasn't even third tier. 
Granted, I only got an associates degree from community college so obviously I am beyond stupid, but I don't understand your point. I am not disappointed in where my kids go to college as long as it's the best fit for them. Hopefully they feel the same way about where they go to college too.[/quote]
