Original Title: People say you shouldn’t let college sports affect your decision of where to go to school. But not once has any potential employer ever asked me to provide a transcript or diploma. People OFTEN ask me about the sports logos I wear.
Every place I have ever applied for has either accepted my resume without asking for proof, or denied me entirely, sans proof.
Turns out that supporting college athletics actually might be important because they form associations, relationships, and experiences that you can later refer back to. Whereas, outside of the government, academia, and certain ultra-high-level research positions, people just fucking believe you when you say you have a diploma.
You’ll spend far more time throughout your life thinking about college sports than you will thinking about the college itself.
TL;DR: Go to a college you will be comfortable rooting for sports in for the rest of your life.
