[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 1 kid that will go 4 yrs in state.  The other is doing HS DE and will finish his last 2 yrs in state.  I think where they go for grad school is more important than where they go for undergrad.[/quote]

Grad school is not that big a commodity anymore, work experience ia valuable.[/quote]

Depends on the grad school. Good luck getting any work experience in many white collar jobs without a grad degree— doctor and many allied health fields, lawyer, CPA, etc.  sure, you can get a BS in CS and be self taught from there. But it’s not like you can be a self taught surgeon. [/quote]

Obviously not talking about higher degree required fields like MD, Lawyer, etc.

However, sure it depends on the grad school.  MS in history?  Doesn't add much value.

MS in CS specializing in Cyber security, AI, Machine Learning, etc.  Big added value.

DP it wasn't obvious to me that you were talking only about masters degrees in humanities.

--a humanities person who does look for degrees higher than BA's when I hire others who also have humanities degrees.[/quote]

What do you look for? I had a BA in poli sci, worked for 10 years, then got an MPA. Definitely think it helped in hiring. [/quote]
