here again I would disagree - it depends on the field and the nature of the employer.
See, I know alot of people want to beleive this, but it just isnt true 99% of the time. I am an accountant for a huge company, and our headquarters are in New York. My local office in Nashville has people from every SEC school you can imagine. Our international controller in New York and all the other big wigs sees all of us the exact freaking same, even though UF has a very highly regarded accounting program. It will help if you want to get into a grad school up north, but for an actual employer it just doesnt

That's why I said it depends on the field and nature of the employer. We are not all accountants working for a huge company.

its really regional outside of a few fields. another example, architecture, Auburn is one of the top programs in the country, but I can tell you for a fact the New York office of HOK(one of the largest firms in the world) Auburn isnt even on their radar, however their Atlanta office is the opposite
