[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CEO of Northrop Grumman is the same age as most of us parents on this board (born 1975) and she went to JMU for business as an undergrad. She made $20 million this year. That's a good enough tip of the spear for me.[/quote] Nice Unicorn but a vast majority of top CEOs came from Ivies. But the question still remains regarding which is the best choice for your kid? The reality is it depends on the field of interest and the major. If your kid doesn't really know what they want to do or waffling between a couple majors then a large state University is probably best. Getting a teaching degree? Same thing. However, for kid with Grad school in mind for Law, Business, Medicine then the $120,000 piece of paper can be a difference maker in regards to the level of Graduate school. But the reality is, for most kids, once they set foot on campus they tend to settle in and enjoy themselves. Some road mapping is obviously helpful but sometimes it is just as good to allow things to sort themselves out. [/quote] I think the point of the JMU post is that what you make of the degree is up to you. These days, the brand name means little and going to a state school is certainly is not a show stopper for your kid to make any level of success.[/quote]
