Hello cawacko,
We've all said things we later wish we hadn't said. That's how we learn.
Kudos to you for actually being receptive to the lessons.
It seems not all lessons in life are taught at an elite school.
Some are learned the old fashioned way. By being a human, and approaching things with an open mind, willing to learn.
And, as I have shown, some whom have attended elite colleges, apparently have not learned some of the most basic lessons in the bigger education called life.

I agree that on a case-by-case basis, and for certain specialties, garden variety public universities can blow the doors off Ivy League, Stanford, or MIT.
UC Davis arguably has the best vet school in the country. I am pretty sure the med school at UC Davis and UC San Francisco blow away most anything in the Ivy League.
As a general rule of thumb, I am speaking to my personal experience - which is that the research scientific elite are not generally coming from University of Utah, or Montana State - they are coming from elite private universities and elite top tier public research universities.
the bastions of faux elitism crumble as jesus institutes his hierarchy of the heart.
LV, for all your ranting and raving in this thread you never actually answered the question that set you off. If your goal is to work in the business world would you be better off being a psychology (pick any non business major if it makes you happy) major at a place like Harvard or studying business as a major at State U.
It goes to the premise of the article I posted which is why I asked the question. Does one necessarily have to attend an elite school.
If this discussion is too upsetting for you feel free not to respond.
(And USC has been in the top 25 for over a decade. It's an elite school. Fight On LV)

What were they prevented from doing?
If her stories weren't flimsy, wouldn't the outcome have been significantly different than it was?
‘I understand that you believe her. I don't. Guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. (Doubt the degrees, or where they came from) of either one had much to do with it...unless you look at her research projects...then maybe‘
Hello TOP,
Yeah, you do know there was more than one accuser. A thorough FBI investigation could not possibly have been conducted in the limited time allotted. Also, the FBI was prevented from even CONSIDERING investigating the stories of all but ONE accuser.
I personally found her testimony to be highly credible and authentic. Anyone who did not take her for her word was prejudiced. She had no reason to lie. He DID.

There was nothing "credible" to investigate. *I'm sure you found her to be credible. I did not. She had plenty of opportunity to bring her story up before she did...but she did not.*You're welcome to believe "anyone who believed her was prejudiced". Many would agree with you. Many would not. Turns out the majority did not....
