[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you need to leave DMV to see this. We chose not to send our kids to private schools because we are avoiding this culture. They are at public schools. But the other thing going on is the regional effect. If you know you want to live in a particular place—be it ohio, Arizona or New Jersey, yes you might as well go to one of the regional schools that has a tight alum network. But going to a T20 will give you more flexibility. I don’t want my kids getting jobs in the region that I’m from—because I don’t think it is an economically viable region in another 20 years.[/quote] Yeah, there are plenty of people in the DMV who don't think a top college is the end-all-be-all. And their kids are fine. [/quote]
