Kalamazoo College. Easily the best college in Michigan and top 3 in the United States. It is better than all the Ivies. I cannot believe people do not know this.

Does anyone actually pay the full price? Of all the schools my kids were admitted to (no financial aid), only one did not offer a merit discount, so we scratched that one from the list.

Completely false. Graduates and students of the schools listed above are highly recruited and sought after by Engineering companies for jobs and internships etc. To be clear, not saying other graduates of lesser ranked schools aren't going to find jobs, but I know for a fact graduates of the schools listed above are greatly sought out.

people keep saying this, but I have a hard time believing the graduates from the lowest ranked (or non-ranked...) ABET school are making the same as those from MIT/Berkley/GT etc

Some people don't live in states with any quality public options (which is over half of them, really, but some really are scraping the bottom of the barrel: e.g., Alaska, the Dakotas, Idaho. . .). CA residents in particular are really fortunate w/respect to their public options: even the community colleges offer a quality education.

15 western states participate in a regional tuition program. Don't know all the details but when I lived in SD, many kids went to school in MN.

Zuckerberg wouldn't have been able to steal the idea for Facebook from other people at Harvard if he had attended SUNY Binghamton, so the answer to PP's question is "no."
