[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Skipped the squabbling. What does kid ultimately want to do with degrees? If get a job, whatever. If maybe get a DC think tank internship at Brookings or the like as a precursor to grad school for a PhD in a field of economics, economic history, etc, then Amherst all the way. Kid may be strong enough right out of undergrad but a paid year as research assistant and name on publication and another good letter is valuable. DH has nurtured a number of students that way. Most are faculty members themselves or working at the Fed, CBO etc. [/quote] +1 Thank you for this pragmatic and sensible point. Many other comments on this thread have been petty and insufferable.[/quote] -1, because they ended up being completely wrong.[/quote]
