I do not agree with Bobbleheads statement” “Don't get hung up on the academics. Most guys are better getting a general education with some courses that interest him. Undergrad is not that big a deal.“

If one is interested in a single metric (future earnings – which is only one metric), the undergraduate degree can have a profound impact on a person’s future. See, http://www.payscale.com/best-c...alary-statistics.asp.

There are many variables to choose one school over another; but do not conclude that future economic benefits are not impacted by the choice. (Of course, we are talking about large groups of graduates and those large numbers are made up of individuals who may or not be the norm for that school. In other words, there are always outliers one way or the other.)
