[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nowhere outside this stupid little bubble do people care/obsess more about which undergrad you attended. In my view, it’s at best a benchmark of how well you can follow directions and manage your time in HS I am sending my kid to a Big3 to open their eyes, think critically, go live their life knowing how to advocate and think for themselves. That’s it. And I pray to god they never come back to DC to be a partner in BigLaw. I will have failed miserably. [/quote] Everyone cared where I went to undergrad outside of the DMV until I was 5-10 years into my career. It’s an overstatement to say it doesn’t matter at all. For many careers, it closes or opens doors. Someone is immensely privileged if they have the financial security of their family to have that fall back or instead pursued a career that allows for that flexibility.[/quote]
