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
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.
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
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.
