My daughter graduated in 2018 Magna Cum Laude in Aeronautical Engineering with over 12,000 fellow graduates. Everyone received their actual diplomas in a nearly full (parents, and such) 105,000 seat stadium in a ceremony that lasted just over two hours. This kid's choice of major, as if the rest of his story didn't confirm it already, shows he has his head on very straight and will probably excel.
There are tons of places one can get a really good education if one know’s what one is doing and/or is lucky, and at most of these one can also get a really bad education.
That said, Roll Tide. (But I’ve got a sister that pulls hard for Ohio State).
