Hey bro I got my MA in comm and leader studies at Gonzaga and it bumped me up to a senior account exec job at a marketing firm in Portland. I'm making big fuckin' bucks for a 28 year old.

>>64825311

>>64825443
Pretty much this
Communications is the major that you switch to when you start failing architecture/engineering/statistics etc. It's the easiest degree you can get that isn't fucking coloring or history.
>Dumb nigger can complete a masters

>>64825524
Stanford isn't even close to the best school in America let alone the world.
Princeton is far and away better, Stanford can never be Ivy.

Pathetic.
>>64825757
"The major in Communication Studies is an interdisciplinary curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree. It seeks to provide students with a comprehensive knowledge of the nature of human communication, the symbol systems by which it functions, the environments in which it occurs, its media, and its effects."
Essentially a bullshit degree. Right up there with other useless soft sciences like Psychology and Sociology.

>implying he doesn't need communication skills in the NFL
As far as Sherman is concerned, he took a major that benefitted his future plans. Why would he need a STEM degree playing for the NFL?
>>64825817
University books are ridiculously overpriced and not infrequently written by school staff. I assume it's worse when they come in "all inclusive" packages like US tuitions.
>>64825757
it's publizistik in austria

Maybe like 1 person in this thread would have what it takes to be accepted to the Stanford graduate program. Maybe.
>>64825851
Why indeed.
>>64825809
But that sounds quite useful since he's playing in the NFL. He's going to retire and get a commentating or pundit job, if he needs to work at all.
He isnt going to think "actually I fancy having a useless science degree after playing football for a decade and having to go into a job market I have no practical experience in to compete with 22 year olds"

There's a huge power gap in the U.S. between Yale, Princeton, and Harvard, and every school after.
My point about the Ivy's is that Stanford can never have the prestige that the Ivy's do.

>>64827041
You're already in debt, take out another 100k, then if it fails, you can take that 100k and file for bankruptcy, and be off the hook. Your student loans will follow and your credit will take a hit, but your business loan will still be gone.

Start finding them. Have your friends make fake yelp reviews, accept shit tier DUI, traffic tickets, take cases from other lawyers that don't want to and give them a 30% cut, partner with a bunch of other young lawyers, pass out business cards, get advertisment.
Holy shit for a bunch of smart lawyers that play with people's lives, you are sure a bunch of whiney fucks.
>>64827194
Yeah you actually need a modicum of intelligence to get into Stanford, even if you're spectacular at football.
>>64826994
I have a feeling most of the people in this thread are high schoolers who think they're going to get into a top 10 school no problem and are bragging ahead of time of what they think will be their future school.
Trust me, I went to one of the best high schools in the country. Everyone there would talk daily about how they were "trying to decide between Harvard or Stanford, or maybe Princeton too" as if it were fucking guaranteed.
In a class of 200 students, literally TWO of them got into schools ranked in the top 15. I will never forget the fucking jubilation that went through me when all those elitist fuckfaces got their poor little dreams crushed and had to settle for the state university instead. They were literally CRYING at my lunch table. It was
incredible.
People don't fucking realize what it takes to get into those schools. They think if they ace their SATs, finish with a 4.0, join a lot of clubs, then they're in. Unless you come from a rich as fuck family, had relatives who went to that school, and have connections, your intelligence and grades alone won't do shit for you.

It's far easier to have a high GPA in graduate school than undergraduate school. Also, as everyone else is saying, Sherman got a degree in communications which is a bozo major. If Sherman had gotten the GPA he had at Cal, I'd be quite a bit more impressed. Stanford's average GPA is higher than a place like Cal and that's even accounting for purportedly smarter people at Stanford.
If the OP really wanted to point out a smart athlete who is also black, he should have used Calvin Johnson as an example. He's a great (although aging and diminishing) player and he graduated with an engineering degree from Georgia Tech. His sister (a doctor, if I remember correctly) and both of his parents are also highly accomplished people.

It's never too late, fampai. I dropped out of college at 21. Went back at 25. In two years, I'll have a degree in a good field and employers will think I'm more mature and trustworthy because I'm not some dumbass 22 year old who never had to struggle

ITT: Non-academics who think they know anything about how academia works.
(Disclaimer: I work on the STEM side of campus, things may well be different on the non-quantitative side of things, but honestly I don't give enough of a fuck to find out)
Whole-university rankings are almost useless; the only thing that really matters is individual departments. The elite universities do tend to have higher-ranking programs *overall* but it's no guarantee.
The University of Texas is a better CS school than Harvard.
The University of Kentucky is a better pharmacy school than Harvard.
(To be fair, though, I couldn't find something quantitative that Alabama or Mississippi beat Harvard on, but there may well be something).

It's almost always worth it in STEM, as you get paid to do graduate work in STEM (at least, you *should*; the joke is an acceptance without financial support is a "polite rejection").
If you can't get support, it's probably not worth it.
