Amazing, isn't it!
Most of the people I talked to are convinced this deal is shady and I'm taking the easy way out! Well, perhaps I am taking the "easy way out" but only for that I should already get awarded a degree LOL, work smarter, not harder right! They should hire all of us EC guys because we show greater ingeniuity, out of the box thinking, creativity and self discipline! If I owned a company I would hire an EC grad before I would hire somebody that just followed the beaten path without thinking!
They only thing sometimes giving me concern is the name of EC College. It just doesn't sound like Rice, A&M, Harvard YKWIM?
I'm curious to see how others feel about this. Do you think the advantages of getting a BS fast from EC still beat getting a BS from say Texas A&M? Do you think it will be negative in the long run not to have a BS from a very esteemed college? Most likely not or you wouldn't be at EC, however I'd love to hear the reasoning behind it.
Thanks!
