> not all degrees are equal Hm - maybe not, but why is that, exactly? I don’t think that anybody believes that if you admit an otherwise stupid person to Harvard, they would become intelligent through the instruction they’d receive there. Instead, the degree and the institution are a signal - this person had to have been smart in the first place to get in, so you can assume that they’re going to do smart things for your business.
