The new narrative will be that you didn't earn a substantial degree because you earned it during the chaos of Covid. If your skills are strong, where you earned your degree and in what format tends to be the last topic of interest. Of course, a local name school, if you work local has value, and a top-tier school will always have flare; however, everything else which makes up the majority of degree earners is all just for the ego because no one cares.
My bestie is a community college professor. He rants and raves that online is absolutely inferior in every way to butt-in-seat.
I wonder how much of that is based on objective data vs. how much of that is based on his ego about the perceived self-importance of his role as the lecturer.
Is he afraid of being replaced? If an online course is inferior, that's on the professor. Butts in seats should have the same work as online. Both types of programs have crummy professors and amazing professors.
