  2. i worked at gsco for a yr, i tell u its not all that.
    what u do is far more important than where you work.

    names and business cards dont make a man

  3. Neat, Hofstra is pretty close to me. Wonder if I can "audit" the class :)

  4. from what i hear they also have access to nearly all of S&P's research (i mean the good stuff industry surverys, updates and trends), some grant from an alumni McGraw Hill director. if they would consider granting access just by registering for 1 credit then you couldnt beat this value for access to first grade research at academic prices.

  5. they are pretty known for their research on accruals and the whole value dog/earning torpedo deal, but looking at the pic all i see is 15 comps none with bloombergs on it. there seems to be one on the side though, so for a potential trading research resource, hofstra beats them hands down

  6. I was there not too long ago, and it has more, and many buy side firms are now recruiting there

  7. in terms of recruiting sure, in terms of technology available to students clearly not.

    Cope- If you think a college grad doesnt benefit tremendously from working at a Tier 1 firm for 5-10 years, you're very mistaken.
