listed as both a State School and a Party School.

Though both of ours seem pretty low for the mid-career numbers

of the majority of our alumni living in Mississippi, where salaries are just lower than anything else. Would be interesting to see a comparison of same job by state.

* but you are a douche.

More interesting - I compared SEC schools to smaller in-state schools. Are they worth the money in the long run?

Auburn $87,900
Alabama $84,300

UAB $68,200
Jacksonville State $63,200

ETSU and Tennessee Tech make more than UT grads <span style="font-style: italic;">allegedly</span>. I would've thought MTSU would be at least a little higher, guess my degree sucks.

 

[DerHntr]

(OM and MSU) doctor, lawyer, engineer = high salary than (USM) nurse, teacher, arts

of course each school has overlap but in general i would say this has something to do with it.</p>

 

[msudawg12]

Just the breadth of higher paying degrees offered. Makes a world of difference
