My dad does hiring for a major Fortune 500 company.

He has told me countless times that where you go to school really doesn't matter, as long as you have a degree and the right personal characteristics. During interviews, your future employer may bring up the topic of college, but it's most likely just to make conversation and learn more about you as a person. Seriously, where a candidate went to school is not something they give much consideration to. In the real world, degree is a degree. Personal characteristics (such as drive, motivation, and integrity) are far more important.
