That television show...Suits, only hires from Harvard (of course one of the main lawyer characters didn't go to law school).....how many real law firms can actually afford to only hire Harvard law students---that is why there is so many law schools and so many lawyers.
Just like the old Doctor joke.....What do they call the guy that was last in his class at Law (medical) school? Lawyer (Doctor)....you just hope yours was not last in their class because the diploma does not say 150th in his class out of 150......
Is the law that is taught at Harvard that much different than any other school? What about Math...is there a different math being taught at Harvard? Are there different business tactics being taught at Harvard, than any other Business school?
Its all about perception, money and politics........nothing else. I had the grades to get into Harvard, but I didn't have the name, money or the political requirements to get into Harvard.......well I didn't try either, because one I didn't want to go to an Ivy League school, and I knew I didn't have the family money, politics or whatever else besides grades to get in.
Regardless of all of that, I am proud of my degrees from the University of Alabama.
DRob....would not care to play football at Harvard.......but Stanford is a nice place, decent football program and has that school reputation...so I cant blame him if that is what he wants. But the U of A was good to me.......
