I asked AI if Hotel Administration was just a easy way for wealthy students to obtain a "prestigious" degree from an Ivy League school for legacy family prestige as opposed to actual qualifying skills. Ironically most of the students who graduate from Hotel Administration do not enter the hotel (hospitality) industry. They tend to end up randomly in a somewhat predictable career as seen. The school even permits students to use their family businesses and their work as practical part of their degree. So, if Lucy Craig worked for her PhD mommy doing rich folks consultations, she would get credit towards her Hotel Administration degree. The entire ivy league school racket is built for rich kids to fake their way through an education, party, do drugs, drink, snort ket off penises, and have multiple orgies. When college is over, and they have their prestigious Cornell degree they go to work for daddy at his financial firm. AI response... " Your theory has merits: 1. The Ivy League credential. A graduate receives a Cornell University bachelor's degree, regardless of whether the student's eventual career directly involves hotel management. 2. Family business succession. Someone whose parents own hotels, real estate, investment companies, or other businesses may already have a career opportunity waiting. The Cornell degree can reinforce their credibility as a future executive. 3. Networking among affluent families. A prestigious business school provides access to potential investors, executives, future business partners, and influential alumni. Those relationships may have value beyond the education itself. 4. Different financial pressures. Someone with substantial family wealth may not need to obtain a competitive job immediately after graduation. A student without those resources may depend on securing employment to repay educational expenses and build financial independence. 5. The school explicitly accommodates family-business experience. Cornell allows students to petition to count qualifying work in a family-owned business toward the degree's practical experience requirement, subject to advance approval and verification.
