Yeah...and letting some guy get away with saying that just because you go the same school for your post high school education career makes you less of a candidate for a job...
Oh the irony...
Oh the irony...

In fact, your probably better off keeping your job hush-hush because
if your viewpoints on hiring people, whether they attended the same school for three degrees or not, finds its way to your employers could be grounds for termination.
Oh yeah...and if you give me some BS like..."my employers feel the same way I do and in fact we practice what we preach"..well then congratulations for finding people that are as ignorant and unethical as you are.

That has to be the dumbest post I've read on PF in the 2 and half years I've been here.

buddyholly9999 said:Hey, Rox, bet I'm more of an alpha male than you are...how's that for the dumbest post you ever saw on PF? ;)
cyrusabdollahi said:Doc, I still have not heard from you as to why you frown upon all 3 from the same institution? What is wrong with that?

Well, it's a start.Dr Transport said:Optical measurements...how about that...
But I still do not see your point. Again, I still do not see how this is pertinent to the original question posed here about getting all of your degrees from the same institution.

Well, can be but then i guess i should not have used the "non disclosure part" because in the company i work for (do my PhD in) we have the exact same policy as the one you have just outlined.A nondisclosure policy is very different from a policy that requires denial that something exists...Anyone that does not work in that world does not understand it.

Let's say you are in fourth year and your are ready to apply to graduate school.
I was told that it is MUCH easier to get into the graduate school where you did you undergrauate since you should (hopefully) know most of the faculty.
It this generally true?
How is the application process to other schools?
