Where you go does affect your chances of getting a job on Wall Street (which of course does not matter if you are not interested such jobs).
I just have to question the wisdom of encouraging people to take these jobs.
I mean, sure, you earn piles of cash. I did that once...but my brain ossified. Really. Plus, on a personal level, you work an insane number of hours and burn out while getting addicted to MORE MONEY! And on a larger level, there is that whole silly issue of being at high risk for destroying the global economy and stuff.
But I am just a silly quixotic person who thinks that maybe things might improve if people stopped focusing so much on more, more, MORE! money (or at least focused on it less). Like, maybe the colleges could stop the tuition arms race, drain the lazy rivers, and maybe stop handing out A++++++s with garlands to every other student. That might help.
