Unlike Stanford, Berklee is not a straight path from the classroom to a job at the Google/Apple of the music industry (which very well may be Google/Apple).

I know plenty of people that have graduated and are still doing unpaid internships. It's a rough time in the traditional (non-tech-focused) music industry right now but I think those people I know lacked the hustle Derek showed.

It takes a certain amount of audacity to have pizza delivered for the entire class like that. I don't think many would see the opportunity or, even if they did, take advantage of it.
