>I really don’t understand this notion that Ivy League universities are somehow no better than community colleges It has not been my experience that their graduates are any better educated than less prestigious universities. Post graduation at the undergrad level their value seems to be just the prestige of the university’s reputation on a resume and the social network it offers to other graduates for upward mobility. I am being honest, I’d consider a degree from Ivy League university a possible negative for an job candidate if I am hiring. One, it speaks to a likelihood of a possible wealthy background growing up and my three decades of experience, I have not found that to be a consistent precursor to capability of the candidate. Two, it creates a higher likelihood that a recent graduate would use my opportunity as a quick stepping stone to the next big thing sooner rather than later.
