[quote=Anonymous]I went to public schools all the way through grad school at University of Maryland. I now work in a public interest profession. My coworkers at the same level as me graduated from Princeton, Harvard, prestigious state schools like Chapel Hill and University of Michigan, less prestigious state schools like Towson in Maryland, a small Christian college I've never heard of, a couple of different HBCUs. One didn't finish college at all. They're all great colleagues, all good at our mission-driven work. You really can't tell the Ivy league grads from the person who didn't finish. Do the Ivy grads have more/better career options than working at our org? Possibly, probably. Would the non-college grad get into a top tier law school, if they suddenly wanted a career change? Obviously no. But my point is that where you go to school doesn't determine your competence, intelligence or capacity to do something meaningful (that yes, also pays just fine). [/quote]
