Prestigious universities get a lot of negative attention for precisely this, at least in some circles. MBAs used to be a no brainer, but the return on their investment has plummeted and much of the value that is retained by the few that retain it is tied up in the exclusivity of the brand. I think (hope) we're also starting to see a reaction to this. For example google is offering free education and at least claiming to consider their graduates as equal to university graduates.
