That's what happens when you're relying on connections rather than reputation. A bucknell kid on the right team or in the right frat has a road paved for them. A rando is just another kid from a decent school with no real advantage


I feel like AI replaces these bros first.


Definitely. Wall Street isn't a safe space for 21 year old bros that didn't go to Harvard or Wharton these days. That ship has sailed.


false - the first to go will be the quant kids from MIT, Cornell, and Penn. The athlete or frat bro from Bucknell is the guy everyone likes to have around and can schmooze with clients. Always will be a home for that dude making booku bucks!

All great choices. Hard to turn down the Ivy pedigree, but the those two LACs in particular have Ivy-like prestige on The Street.

Neither do those do. The LACs with Ivy pedigree are WASP and Wellesley/Bowdoin. What a weird troll.


This. I went to one of those schools. No one there thought of it as ivy-like then and I don't know any alumni who think of it that way now.

Until AI learns to golf, these bros will be the last replaced. Someone has to convince rich people and pension managers that 2 and 20 is a good deal despite every study every done showing that it's a terrible deal.

Which makes sense. It's not a prestigious school and has little clout beyond what one troll forces himself to think every thread. That person is a freak obsessed with the school.

I would choose Bucknell if the goal is Wall Street, but you can't lose with either.

This is delusional. Bucknell is nothing compared to ND on Wall Street.

for business it’s a toss up - both are great options!


Come on. A toss up between Notre Dame and Bucknell? This is a troll.
