Does this mean that a degree from Yale and Harvard is now meaningless as an indication of actual knowledge gained?

Hate to say it, but the degree from Yale or Harvard was never about knowledge gained.

I already know their explanation and it will be this — It’s because 80% of the students they have accepted are the best and the brightest.

No. The key role of elite colleges is identifying and branding the top bootlicking with sufficient brainpower and stick-to-it talent in each new class of college students.

Employers are looking for that more than the nonsense that most colleges teach being sufficiently poured into students’ heads.
