Personnel

gollark: This is empirically false given graduate income statistics.
gollark: Their course *is* substantially cooler-sounding than the other ones.
gollark: I'm not even utterly sure if I want to go to Oxford (or Imperial) since they apparently are very hard work, and many of my useful* skills come from having had lots of free time to do whatever.
gollark: I see.
gollark: Well, obviously my choices are perfect and optimal.
