Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 4688492, member: 237"] This is your story and anecdotal. Not knocking you but with many years of experience in hiring plus my own rural background compared to the opportunities opened and networks created via college for myself, those I know and those I've hired and managed many not from elite schools. Networking still requires effort. It's a tool that a college education affords you. If you don't make the effort to use it- it's not college or the level of the colleges prestige that failed to provide it. Also as an example- I grew my career as did others at the beginning of the crisis- the tightest labor market since the s&l crisis. Thankful to SU for being an useful resource for that. So as I said there is value in one way or another depending on your background but you still make your own destiny. [/QUOTE]
