> a classics degree is the easiest option I'm not sure I'd agree with that assertion.

  You can substitute it for English, Communications, or Literature if you prefer.

    Elite colleges are weird. At state schools, usually the technical programs are the most rigorous. While elite colleges offer largely identical technical degrees, their most difficult or prestigious course might be something obscure like Philosophy, Politics & Economics. It's almost like a shibboleth: only those who actually went to the school will recognize the prestige.

      This is why managers/bosses prefer hiring people from the same university as them. Those graduates went through the same "hazing" they did.
