I HONESTLY BELIEVE that a degree from UofL is dimineshed as of right now.
Scenario...You move out to Oregon, apply for a position...senior management is sifting through dozens of resumes. They see yours and it says University of Louisville on it. They dont know much about Louisville or you at this point except this comes to mind....(they had a decent basketball team at one time, Denny Crum, then this... Rick Pitino, Bobby Petrino, Ramsey, Jurich, SACS accreditation is in question or was, hookers in Dorms, Death penalty, corruption, Bribery to get players ) Onto the next resume...
You CANNOT tell me something like this would not happen. No way that degree is better because of sports, maybe 5 years ago but not right now. It is Tarnished period, the end.
