[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]("Where You go is Not Who You'll Be.") It is a really valuable reminder that you don't need to go to "name brand" colleges -- and by extension, high schools -- to grow up to be a fantastically happy, prosperous, creative and successful human being. In fact, Bruni cites compelling evidence that the most "elite" schools do not reliably produce the most successful graduates. I found reading it a great corrective to the anxiety on this board, and recommend it to all! [/quote] I totally agree. I know several Ivy grads who are unemployed or underemployed. I have found that my State university education has served me well. On these boards everyone seems to think Ivy is THE ONLY path to success. That is absolutely not what I’ve experienced. [/quote]
