Companies like Google can afford to hire the best. They do that by getting people from top end CS schools like Stanford, CMU, Berkeley and other relevant schools for non CS work. HBCUs are simply not in the top tier and don't produce developers that will be worth $200,000 a year. It's not because they're black colleges but because they're not in the top 1 percent.
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoIs Stanford the best school in and of itself, or do most of the value come from the selection itself?
- yostrovs 6y agoI hear it's pretty good.
- runawaybottle 6y agoUh, isn’t it Leetcode or bust? What’s the college you went to have anything to do with it? In fact, I’d say it’s the only saving grace of Leetcode, that it doesn’t discriminate on any level. The great equalizer.
- tptacek 6y ago"HBCUs don't produce developers that will be worth $200,000 a year"? I know high school dropouts who are worth more than that. What a strange statement.
