Except certain sciences... IMO NO.
How about business and finance ?
Let me answer that --- Barney Frank, Frank Raines, Jamie Gorelick, The top ranking executives of AIG, Bear Sterns, Lehman, Fannie and Freddie, etc. all went to Ivy Business schools.
A lot of business graduates from small, less well known colleges went on to open small businesses.

How about business and finance ? How much of that is because of the education itself and how much because of contacts made in college and the families who send their kids to those schools?

Any honest and decent person wouldn't have made it to the positions of the above mentioned illustrous characters.

Which isn't a bad thing... and "small" businesses generally pay-off attending "lesser known" colleges.

"Let me answer that --- Barney Frank, Frank Raines, Jamie Gorelick, The top ranking executives of AIG, Bear Sterns, Lehman, Fannie and Freddie, etc. all went to Ivy Business schools." Not every institution of higher learning offers a course in "Scoring Major Moolah at the Public Trough While Undermining a Nation" in the curriculum?
