Why can't you Americans just stop fetishizing university brands? In Europe nobody gives a shit if you graduated from, say, University of Frankfurt and not La Petit de Academy Francois Internatzionale. It's the content of the education that matters not the brand. You have a masters in archaeology? Ok, good luck finding a job. You have a masters in civil engineering? Good for you, you won't need luck. We even have evidence in forms of things like Mathematical Olympiads and coding competitions which are full of university students. Are they dominated by Ivy league students? No.
