[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole premise of OP's statement is wrong. It's been demonstrated ad nauseum by many people that top firms want top people, not diplomas from colleges everyone has heard of. Here's a list of references. I'd love to see OP's support for their statement. Dale and Kruger, a peer-reviewed study of outcomes for college grads comparing elite colleges to their backups. Less High School Stress (website cited frequently on DCUM with tons of data looking at this from multiple angles. LinkedIn, on which anyone can do their own research and see from which colleges any firm is hiring. Harvard Schmarvard (book by Jay Mathews) Where You Go is not Who You'll Be (book by Frank Bruni) Numerous DCUM threads.
