Universities don't have monopoly on networking. Yes it's easy to network while you're all students but it's also quite random. Probably only a handful people of those early networks will be any use for you since people tend to go different ways.
It's actually more effective to find your own area and network there.
- IsaacL 17y agoIt's not just the networking; it's the status you get from going to such an institution, especially if it's 'elite'. I guessing there are relatively few 18-year-olds who consider the networking potential of university, wheras lots probably go as it's the thing they're expected to do. I'm a student now, and a lot of my friends don't seem to have learning as their main priority, in fact I'm not sure what their priority is. Thus, even if this guy's ideas do provide a better learning experience, it's not like people will abandon uni for them.
