As FLAVDAD said...the school does not determine a person's "success" (if we're talking about the typical CC attitude that being successful is making 200k+ a year). Success is determined by the person and the person only, and it only happens so that highly motivated, intelligent people happen to go to schools like Harvard and Yale.

If we were to take two clones with equal motivation, intelligence, and perseverance, put one in Harvard, and another in State U, I'd wager that 10 or 15 years later, they would be at the exact same place success-wise.
