[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What is really frightening is that you both don't understand that it takes 10 to 20 years after graduation from college to have any idea "what happens to someone" or what happens to any particular cohort. The first job people get and if they "have 3 job offers in January" has much more to do with the economy (expected economy) at that time than where they went to school. Over those 10 to 20 years, the economic cycles average out and the benefit of one type of background or another plays out. Any "study" that was based on the last two or three years would have cherry picked the data by definition.[/quote] I get that, but higher-ed has changed sooooo much in the last 20 years. Global, common app, fast-moving tech economy. It's just tying to connect 02-06 alums to current campus climate and outcomes is just silly.[/quote]
