[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to NYU. No way in hell is it worth $200K+ more for a CS [b]trade-school[/b] degree. Go to VT, save the money, and give your kid a down payment on their first condo. Now, if your kid was double-majoring in CS and Applied Math at Courant, then I'd probably spring for NYU. Because Courant is [b]well-renowned[/b] and at that point my kid is very likely targeting academia. But if your kid wants to be a programmer and get a [b]grinder job[/b] at Amazon or Facebook with equity targets, just pay in-state tuition at VT or W&M.[/quote] ^^ Probably from a tenured clown.. Go to VT. Get that tech job and make enough money in 10 years that a tenure tracker will make in 30. After those 10 years, if you get the hankering to teach, find a funded PhD program somewhere, get tenured and coast. [/quote]
