- The perception of most corporations is that with a college degree you
- have proven yourself to be better than the guy who does not have the
- degree (acidity test). This is just as applicable for the guy with the
- MBA and vs. the guy with just a college degree. Unfortunately the people
- who are hiring are the ones you have to convince that their perception is
- wrong.
-
- It's just a reality, and it probably isn't going to change any time soon.

- I may be going out on a limb here, but I bet 90-95% of Microsoft's white
- collar employees are college grads.
