<p>I deal with investment bankers. They’re arrogant idiots. They are the only ones who care that much about where you went to school. And they do it in a particularly stupid way. It’s based on their friends, what they’ve heard of.</p>
<p>So if an investment banker has to choose between Swarthmore and Michigan, 90% of the time he’ll choose Michigan because “it’s a better school.”</p>
<p>The rest of the world - Medical Schools, Law Schools, computer industry, etc. - just can’t afford to be that dumb. Read Liar’s Poker if you get a chance.</p>
