    To all managers out there: if a University of Alabama alum’s résumé crosses your desk, file it in the trash right away.

      So what you were saying is a student went there had no real saying who the speaker was , had no way to know when they applied to the school that four years later the school would have Trump speak at the commencement speech. Yet we should punish the student for not being able to predict the future.?? Really?!

      Do you think the students choose who speaks at their graduation? All i did was show up to my graduation and stand in a long ass line to get my diploma.

        These aren’t high school kids tied to an underfunded school district. They’re young adults who explicitly chose to attend and not transfer to any other public university. You’re allowed to judge them however you want.

            That’s not the case here at all? Do you know how the higher education system in the USA works?

            I’m not judging every single person in Alabama. I’m judging the students that choose to enroll or remain at the University of Alabama when they regularly give shitty people platforms like this or host them at football games.

            There are 60 colleges and universities in Alabama and 1000s more across the country. It’s not uprooting your life to change schools, and Bama isn’t exactly an academic powerhouse anyway. If you don’t find one that fits your goals and isn’t massively regressive that’s on you.

              How many publicly funded universities are in Alabama? And how many are within a reasonable distance of [insert town here]?

              People rely on public schools. You can’t just up and move to a different one

                And how many are within a reasonable distance of [insert town here]?

                67% of Bama’s student body is from out of state. The in state students are no more than a 5 hour drive from anywhere else in the state. So again, 14.

                We’re not talking about a cheap commuter school or an accessible community college. The in-state cost for a 4 year degree is 138k. There are plenty of schools with the same admission requirements for the same sticker price.

                You can get a similar academic, athletic, and campus experiences at other places. If you don’t bother, then you care more about the crimson A branding than being associated with scumbags.

      Some employees are known disregard resumes from some of the prestigious universities, because of the elitist and entitlements of the graduates. and disregard employee candidates from red areas, because the lack of quality of experience in those states.
