[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Notre Dame is the only real surprise on that list for me, particularly given that I think of it as a school that places a lot of grads in the midwest, where salaries tend to be lower.

Austin produces a lot of STEM degrees, I think.  Berkeley was well, plus places a lot of grads in the Bay Area, where salaries are very high.
Miami and USC have a lot of richie rich kids that get jobs in the family business.
NYU places most grads in NYC, which has the highest salaries in the US.  [/quote]

No doesn’t surprise me at all.  Huge endowment and many wealthy legacies. [/quote]

Agree, a perfect example of kids who are just coming in from privilege and then returning to that privilege with the stamp of approval from a name brand school. ND isn't even that hard to get into if you are a wealthy Catholic because you can boost your odds significantly by sending them to a highly regarded Catholic high school. It's like a sneaky backdoor way of easing your kid's admission to an "elite" school.[/quote]
