[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, I'm not even the military's biggest fan (see the perfidy story from today) but pretending that service academy and LAC graduates are the same is ludicrous. If I receive applications from two 27 year-old applicants, one of whom studied at West Point and then served in the military and one of whom attended a SLAC and then took entry level roles in our field, I'm going to pick the servicemember because their maturity at that age is going to be light years higher. As a result, managing them will be easier and I'm all about making my life easier. [/quote] The argument was about the SLAC student that went to Navy ROTC as opposed to the Naval academy grad, both had the same job in the Navy, at that point you're considering who has more accolades in the Navy, not where they went to undergrad[/quote]
