Do you know why people who go to Ivy League schools tend to get higher paying, more sought after jobs? Two main reasons would be nepotism and networking.
If you were to interview for a job with a Fortune 500 company, and the postion for which you were applying was going to be filled by you or one other candidate who had attended Notre Dame, the chances that one of the people from that company being a Notre Dame alum is pretty good, and that person would push for "his guy", which is a form of nepotism.
As for networking ... for people who attend more prestigious colleges, they make many friends while in school. Some of those friends will get great jobs because of what was stated in the paragraph above. There are endless business opportunities created by who you know, as opposed to what yu know or where you get your degree.
Bottom line is that for most people, paying the huge tuition at a prestigious college is well worth it.
First of all, online education isn't cheap; second of all, reference my above post, a lot of people take online classes because THEY ALREADY WORK, but want to further their education. Some are already married w/children. Are they supposed to stop working and supporting their families?
Are all of you people so old and out of touch that you don't understand what is going on these days education wise?
You all sound like a bunch of bitter dinosaurs. Wow. lol
