20、done. The founder of two tech companies, Tesla Motors andSpaceX, is bringing electric vehicles to mass market and _1_ humans to live on otherplanets.

21、 ones.A lot of clever people are _3_ about artificial intelligence, fearing that robots will oneday become so _4_ that theyll murder all of us.

27、ollege. Idiligently attended my SAT, ACT, and Advanced Placement test preparation courses. I juggled(尽力应付) cross-country and track schedules, newspaper staff, and my churchs youth groupand drama team. I didnt drink, party, or even do much dating. The right college, I thought, was one with prestige,

28、one with a name. It didnt have to be the Ivy League, but it needed tobe a “top school.“B) Looking back now, nine years later, I cant remember exactly what it was about theseuniversities that made them seem so much better. Was it a curriculum that appeared morerigorous, perhaps? Or an alumni network

29、that I hoped would open doors down the line? Maybe. “I do think there are advantages to schools with more recognition,“ notes MarybethGasman, a professor of higher education at the University of Pennsylvania. “I dont necessarilythink thats a reason to go to one.“C) In reflection, my firm belief in t

30、he power of the brand was naive, not to mention a bitsnobby. I quickly passed over state schools and southern schools, believing their curriculums tobe automatically inferior to northeastern or western counterparts. Instead, I dreamed ofliving in New York City and my parents obliged me with a visit

31、to New York Universitys (NYU) campus. During the tour, tuition fees were discussed. (NYU is consistently ranked one of thecountrys most expensive schools, with room and board costs totaling upwards of $ 64,000 ayear.) Up until then, I hadnt truly realized just how expensive an education can be. Over

32、 thenext few months, I realized not only could I not afford my dream school, I couldnt even affordthe ones where Id been accepted. City University of New York (CUNY), Rutgers University, andIndiana University were out of reach as were Mississippi State and the University of Alabama, where I would ha

33、ve to pay out-of-state fees. Further complicating my college search was aflourishing track careerI wanted to keep running but my times werent quite fast enough tosecure a scholarship.D) And so, at 11 pm on the night of Georgia State Universitys (GSU) midnight deadline, Iapplied online. Rated No. 466

34、 overall on Forbes Lists Top Colleges, No. 183 in ResearchUniversities, and No. 108 in the South, I cant say it was my top choice. Still, the track coachhad offered me a walk-on spot, and I actually found the urban Atlanta campus a decentconsolation prize after New York City.E) While it may have bee

35、n practical, it wasnt prestigious. But heres the thing: I loved my“lower-tier“ (低层次的) university. (I use the term “low-tier“ cautiously, because GSU is a well-regarded research institution that attracts high quality professors and faculty from all overthe country.) We are taught to believe that only

36、 by going to the best schools and getting thebest grades can we escape the rat race and build a better future. But what if lower-tiercolleges and universities were the ticket to escaping the rat race? After all, where else can youleave school with a decent degreebut without a lifetime of debt?F) My

37、school didnt come prepackaged like the more popular options, so we were left to takecare of ourselves, figuring out city life and trying to complete degree programs that no one waschampioning for us to succeed in. What Im saying is, I loved my university because it taught usall to be resourceful and

38、 we could make what we wanted out of it.G) I was lucky enough to have my tuition covered by a lottery-funded scholarship called HOPE(Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally). When I started college, the HOPE scholarship wasfunded by the state of Georgia and offered to graduating high school seniors

39、 with a GPA of 3.0 or higher. Living costs and books I paid for with money earned during high school, supplemented by a small college fund my deceased grandfather left for me and a modestsavings account my parents created when I was born.H) So what about all that name recognition? Sure, many of my c

40、olleagues and competitorshave more glamorous alma maters (母校)than I do. As a journalist, I have competed againstNYU, Columbia, and Northeastern graduates for jobs. And yet, not a single interviewer has everasked me about my educational background. In fact, almost every interview Ive ever had wasdue

41、to a connectionone that Ive gained through pure determination, not a school brand.I) According to The Boston Globe, students who earned their bachelors in 2012 have anaverage monthly loan payment of $312, which is one-third more than those who graduated in2004. Ultimately, thats the thing universiti

42、es dont want to admit. Private universities aremoney-making institutions. If you can afford to buy prestige, thats your choice. For the rest ofus, however, our hearty lower-tiered universities are just fine, thank you.J) Wealthy universities talk up the benefits their name will give graduates: namel

43、y, strongalumni networks, star faculty, and a rsum boost. But you neednt attend an Ivy Leagueschoolto reap those rewards. Ludacris and the former CEO of Bank of America Ken Lewis arealumni of my college, as well as VICEs first female editor-in-chief, Ellis Jones. Successfulpeople tend to be successf

44、ul no matter where they go to school, and lower-tier schools canhave alumni networks just as strong as their big name counterparts. In fact,lower-tier schoolalumni networks are arguably stronger, because fellow alumni recognize that you didntnecessarily have an easy path to follow. They might be mor

45、e willing to offer career help, because your less famous school denotes that, like them, you are also full of energy andperseverance.K) The Washington Post reported on a recent study by Princeton economists, in which collegegraduates who applied to the most selective schools in the 12th grade were c

46、ompared to thosewho applied to slightly less selective schools. They found that students with more potentialearned more as adults, and the reverse held true as well, no matter where they went toschool.L) Likewise, star faculty are not always found where youd expect. Big name schools are notnecessari

47、ly the best places for professors; plus, many professors split teaching time betweenmultiple colleges and/or universities. This means, for instance, a CUNY student couldreasonably expect to receive the same quality of instruction from a prestigious professor asthey would if they were enrolled in the

48、 same class at NYU.M) Its possible that some hiring managers may be drawn to candidates with a particulareducational rsum, but its no guarantee. According to a 2012 survey described in TheAtlantic, college reputation ranked lowest in relative importance of attributes in evaluatinggraduates for hire,

49、 beaten out by top factors like internships, employment during college, college major, volunteer experience, and extracurriculars.N) Maybe students who choose less prestigious universities are bound to succeed becausethey are determined to. I tend to think so. In any case, if I could do it again, Id still make thesame choice. Today Im debt-free, resourcefuland I understand that even the shiniestpackaging c
