“It is true that the fancier your alma mater, the more famous people you will know when you're 45. You, however, will not necessarily be one of those famous people yourself. You could very easily wind up being the deputy assistant to a person who graduated 40th in her class at Wichita Tech.”

-- New York Times columnist Gail Collins on the Times’s "Conversation" blog, June 10, 2009.
