[quote=Anonymous]There are many paths to success. My son attended what many here consider to be a 4th tier Radford University as a golf recruit with 25% scholarship. He was also not a good student with a 2.2 GPA majoring in marketing. He got a summer job at Chevy Chase country club and there he caught the attention of a young lady who is now his wife because of his golf ability. She introduced him to play golf with her father, and her father introduced him to play with other “decision” makers. Fast forward to now, he is in charge of both the sale and marketing team with people who graduated from HYPS report to him. He is making so much money now that it is crazy. Not bad for a kid who came to America at the age of 7 with his immigrant parents from Hungary. Where you go to college does matter IF AND ONLY IF you know how to leverage this connections. Otherwise, you’re just wasting money. Academic success does not translate into a successful career. [/quote]
