The Value of an Education
Median Mid-career Salaries for People with Bachelor's Degrees from the Following Universities:
1. San Jose State University: $92,900
2. UC Berkeley: $109,000
3. Stanford: $119,000
These median salary numbers are compile by Payscale.com
According to the data, San Jose State, UC Berkeley, and Stanford Graduates start out with similar salaries, but after about 20 years working, Berkeley and Stanford graduates start earning more........$109,000 for Berkeley, and $119,000 for Stanford, compared with $92,900 for SJSU graduates.
Data shows that students that make the most money are those that do well in technical majors such as engineering. It seems that Cal Poly San Luis Obispo graduates earn as much as graduates from USC, but pay less than half the cost for tuition. Also, the top 10% students from Fresno State seem to earn just as much as mid-level students from Stanford.
The highest earning college graduates come not from Harvard, or Princeton, or Yale, but from Harvey Mudd College, which is attributed to Harvey Mudd's heavy focus on math, science, engineering, and a strong alumni base in Southern California, where salaries are high.

It is not uncommon for companies to pay local reporters to write bad things about their competitors.
A major reason for the existence of this type of cut-throat, unethical competition, is the fact that it really isn't easy to sell services to several hundred million Internet users in a culture that expects most things on the Internet to be free.
