  Of course, I still see job postings requiring a "CS degree from a top school." I think it's great they come right out and admit that they're a bunch of elitist douche-bags so I don't even bother applying. Could you imagine working at such a place with a degree from a :shudder: public university?

    My first job was on campus at Cranfield University which regarded those top schools as "alright" (ad Stanford wasn't on the list btw) for your first degree but you had better got a first had the right supervisors.

    Half of the top CS programs are public. Well, 40% -- four of the top ten CS programs in the US are state schools.
