One last time everybody...is it about the education, or the degree?

<p>About 15 yrs ago, when MBAs were highly touted, management brought in a recent grad to learn the ropes in our ofc. Within 2 yrs, that person replaced my boss. Shortly thereafter, we had a vacancy in our area...so we advertised for the position and received over 20 resumes. Before leaving for vacation, Mr. MBA asked us to interview 8 applicants and narrow it down to 3 for him. There was 1 young woman whom we all felt was extremely qualified and we enjoyed interviewing. To make a long story short, our boss nixed her because "the MBA program at Georgetown is not high caliber." Wow! As individuals, he and I were different as night and day...but, I learned a lot during the 2 yrs I worked for him...that my children will never be disqualified from a job because the caliber of their education was questionable.</p>
