[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a big scam by rich white people who try hard to promote their school brands as "prestigious" after they send their ALDC kids to these schools for easy majors. Middle-class people should be aware of this. If you blindly think that "Harvard" is such a prestigious name, so you will be all set spending a ton of money, that could be a big mistake.

CMU CS, NYU Stern, GT SFS etc. are more prestigious than useless majors at those school names that keep popping up.

If it's really prestigious, it will be highly valued in society, industries, and the real world.

Harvard English: $49,675

Northwestern Psychology: $61,389

Does it look prestigious? They are simply not.
Now

CMU Elect Engineering: $$149,740

Northeastern CS: $132,227

Boston College Finance: $110,242

These seem more serious and prestigious.
If someone throws out some school names and tries to convince you that they are prestigious, it is likely a rich white person with an ALDC kid trying to scam you.  Watch Out.

You are trying to apply the word prestigious in place of lucrative. They are two different things.  [/quote]

When the society, industry, real word treat it like dirt, it's not prestigious.
It's called a scam or fantasy at the best.

Sure, Harvard grads are treated like dirt.  How about compare major to major?[/quote]
