Schools that historically sent a lot of students to internship and new grad seats at great companies to work for will continue to do so because there's an element of "institutional knowledge" built up over the years and a reciprocal relationship with these companies through the representation of alumni.
Not a huge problem in itself but it sort of implicitly makes the lives of people who exist out of this feedback loop harder in terms of getting a "top job" straight out of college. Many of which didn't even know that any of this interplay existed and just chose to go to a decent school nearby or couldn't afford to move out. Reasons that would be innocuous, but result in sub-optimal treatment for those that don't clue themselves in well enough.
It is for this reason that I've made a personal goal for myself go to a better college to get internships on my resume and become as privileged as possible.
I know I can get into a better job without needing to go back to school, but I still won't have had the more "privileged" college experience. Is that ridiculous to think about retroactively changing parts of your life? After all, we have only one life to live (that we know of) so I believe it's everyone's right to go nuts and craft the best damn narrative you can for your life and be whoever you want, not just professionally but academically and privilege-wise too.
