Do universities and employers discriminate against people with an online degree?
#9
One of the nice things about the Big3 is that 90% of people you deal with will have no idea they specialize in distance education. I don't make a big deal of it, and respond with enthusiasm when I do talk about my degree. If someone wants to look down their nose in the face of my pride, so be it... I'm still proud of my achievement.
