Julius Peppers?
well obviously i wouldn't hire him as an african american studies analyst.. he's not qualified.

It's pretty relevant if he is in a position to hire people.
This isn't going to totally destroy the value of a UNC degree, or even majorly diminish it, but you're kidding yourself if you don't think it will have an impact even if there are no academic sanctions.
Degree value is all about image and reputation. The first thing everyone will think of now when they see a UNC degree is of this scandal. That's not the frame of mind you want people to start off in when they're evaluating you.
This will have no meaningful effect on the perceived value of a degreed UNC graduate. None. Wanting it to be different won't make it so. This is not the sea change you want it to be.
are you defending your degree from UNC or someone you care about has a degree from UNC?
I don't care either way i kinda agree with you.
I never said it was going to be a sea change...I specifically said it wouldn't majorly diminish the value of a UNC degree.This will have no meaningful effect on the perceived value of a degreed UNC graduate.

That would be a disaster because the difficulty of the test would end up being concrete evidence of how much of a joke student athlete education is at the vast majority of schools. Think about that essay from the UGA player a while ago. Either that or the failure rate would be very high.I like this idea: all student-athletes who are on a paid scholarship for athletics have to take a standardized final exam for each class they take, which is graded by an independent body.

what percentage of UNC undergraduate degrees/alumni are in engineering, sciences or business? I would think that would be a fair size percentage of UNC degrees, at least 30%. Tech grads are definitely involved in hiring those majors. (and many more)I don't think you're working in a field that would have many UNC grads in it in the first place so that point is moot.
Your Tech BSc degree would get you interviews with Deloitte too, so I am not sure how much that UNC degree counts in this instance.Granted, I'm currently obtaining a UNC degree so take my personal bias into account, but I'm not having any problems getting interviews with Deloitte and the like.

Hell, UGA has a high entry SAT score. Doing well on your SATs means nothing to the rigor of the educational system you're entering. Just means the baseline student is smarter going in.
at Deloitte being a big deal. Get an offer from McKinsey and you have a point.
My guess is he works or has worked at McKinsey. With that said, McKinsey >>> Deloitte. It's not even close.Wow, step off the high horse. I happen to loathe consulting companies, and even I feel like you're being an ass.
