My current manager said: "I would hire a U of C grad over a Devry grad. I am sure Devry grads would be good programmers but I value theory more then technical aspects. I have hired 3 Devry grads before, 1 was really good and smart but the other 2 were awful"

take it for what its worth.
Doh. I looked into MRC and the website says applications are closed for Sept 2009. I'd have to wait until Sept 2010.

Damn. Why couldn't I get laid off two months earlier!
