[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With AI progressing so quickly, college prestige may matter less and less. People won’t need a degree to prove their abilities. Seeing so many Gen Z job struggles—unemployment, low wages, outsourcing, H-1B competition—makes it feel like our kids are just fighting to survive. It’s hard to know whether a college degree still makes a difference.[/quote]

Uh no. Top colleges will always matter[/quote]

Maybe to the poor who don’t pay a dime but ROI matters and the ROI just isn’t there anymore for full pay students.[/quote]

You sound stupid trying to argue that full pay students are passing on ivy league credential based on ROI[/quote]

Well not just that but people don't want to consider it for several reasons including ROI. Sorry that bursts your bubble that's it's just so elite and everyone is dying to go. [b]Smart rich kids are taking their wealth and connections elsewhere.[/quote][/b]

This just isn’t true.[/quote]
There’s a decent chunk of genuinely smart, well connected students at SMU, LMU, Elon, WUSTL, Umiami, Vandy… These are definitely not the Ivy League students PP is talking about, but they’re avoiding various schools with “sweat” cultures with no fun.[/quote]

None of these schools are Alabama[/quote]
