[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you rather go to Delaware State University to play D1 soccer or Johns Hopkins to play D3 soccer [/quote]

To me there is nothing remotely attractive about going to Hopkins.

I'd do Delaware and then go to a better grad school.[/quote]

P.S. if you said Amherst or Tufts my answer would have been different.[/quote]

Kind of depends on the major too. If the kid even knows when they graduate HS.

A prior poster talked about how people hire. Hiring managers rarely care which school, as long as a degree was earned. They care about the degree, the experience, and the individual’s ability to interview well (I.e. be a fit for the need on both hard and soft skills and the general culture). The worst thing a young person can do is never work before they graduate college. This shows a complete lack of drive, no concept of what it means to earn a day’s pay, and no concept of having responsibility to others. I might hire an intern with this type of background, but not a paid employee. So regardless of the school they pick, make sure they get some summer job or part time during the school year work experience under their belt. [/quote]
