If you're running out of candidates, expand to IIT and China's C9 league before going to UConn or PSU.
The problem with doctor cost has much more to do with cartel behavior than Ivy league preference.
- Retric 2y agoThere’s a huge realm of options between elite colleges and local community schools. If you want a hundred security professionals, an undergraduate from a mid tier state school and a master’s in computer security from GMU etc is a vastly better option. That said, if you want the absolute best early filters fail. Linus Torvalds went to the University of Helsinki. John Carmack went to University of Missouri–Kansas City for two semesters before dropping out. Donald Knuth may teach at Standford, but he got his undergrad and masters from Case Western Reserve University before getting a PHD. Founders are more likely to come from elite schools because it eases fundraising, but talent is distributed widely.
- steveBK123 2y agoI mean everyone is free to their opinion, but this line of thinking kind of puts to bed any idea of college as an opportunity for Americans to rise up the social classes / do better than their parents. Majority of kids who are first in their family to go to college go to state schools. They are affordable, and have capacity for millions of seats versus the 10Ks of capacity at the elites. If the answer to not having enough elite grads is to hire H1Bs as your next best option..
