Huh? You know grads of either can go anywhere, right?
None of my friends went to Utah County right out of school and most don’t live there now.
If Utah County was where all BYU grads go I would not have gone there and definitely won’t send my kids there.

These numbers don't account for COL right? if all Stand-ford grads stay in SF area, of course the salary is higher

Why would grads need to stay in SF? Do BYU grads stay in the Provo area?

Yes, a lot of them do in both cases.

Yep, the analysis of pay versus where you work would be a pain. But if you could do it I am sure we’d look dang good.
