[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Source - 20 years tenured prof running large research lab. [/quote] Ah, so you're a data person, I hope. Let's see your data. Because all the NSF data shows that SLAC graduates far, far outnumber their their large university peers when it comes to actually earning PhDs in STEM fields. If there's anyone struggling to complete the PhD, it's not SLAC alum.[/quote] Okay, for fun (and out of curiosity), I did a quick analysis of the people who have won the highest mid-career medal in my field over the past ten years: Private R1 undergrads: 41% State R1 undergrads: 50% SLAC undergrads: 9% There you go.[/quote] Given that nearly 80% of undergrads go to public colleges and universities, meh. Are you always this bad at analysis? Tell me you didn’t hone this skill at an R1.[/quote]
