> I tell them pick one: Really, really prestigious or cheap and decent
In reality, there is really only one criterion: affordable.
The really elite universities will make themselves affordable if you can get in, and if you can't then you're better off going somewhere cheap. There's no point in paying for the expensive middle.
Hopefully, this will do more to eliminate degrees as a (useless) hiring signal.
