[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who has recruited 100+ people from both SLACs and Research Universities, I would say it's a different answer than it was 10 years ago. Circa 2010, I'd take SLAC grads over a place like VT, Cal, or Michigan e.g., because they were generally better critical thinkers and writers. The emphasis on core curriculum, writing, logic, etc. made better entry level employees in consulting. That has changed, imho. SLAC grads are weaker than they were (not judging on why, but can guess). It's not that the big school grads are better at critical thinking and writing, but they haven't gotten worse, and they tend to be more motivated and have useful hard skills. This is just one recruiter's observation.[/quote] Why do you think the SLAC grads are now weaker? [/quote]
