Honestly, big state schools offer the best opportunities.
Ivy League offers great opportunities as well but if family income over $100k your gonna be taking loans. Decision I had to make.

My terminal degree(STEM) is from Tulane. Obviously better than LSU on every metric. I'd have been better off going to LSU. It's all about what connections the school has to industry. Tulane students are generally old school northeast money. If your not one of them Tulane degree really means shite.
Big state schools like LSU etc do a pretty good job networking and generating opportunities for grads with big companies.

Why is a "smart" girl majoring in business?
Any moron can do that.
Do finance with a math or comp sci double major something difficult to set her apart.

I was listening to Marc Maron's interview with Peter Berg and he was telling him how he was a terrible student in high school and how he didn't get into his backup school (Might have said the backup to his backup school)which he said was Tulane but he didn't get accepted. I knew a lot of students were from the northeast but it still sounded random to hear that as his fallback school.

That's too bad. I graduated from Loyola, and my degree was worth every penny.
