Looking at the earnings of graduates, it doesn't appear that Stanford graduates earn much more than other graduates. It seems like the degree mix the institution awards and the cost of living of the area have the greatest impact on post college earnings. We also need to remember that computer science students comprise just a small portion of the overall student body. http://www.payscale.com/college-salary-report-2014/full-list...

In regards to the online content, keep in mind that this content has been developed and published with the knowledge that tens of thousands of people will watch it, so it is important to ensure it is of high quality.



In general, I'm really starting to question any reports on salary alone once it gets past $100K/year.

After that point, performance bonuses in their many forms can have such a large impact and that doesn't seem to be represented in salary comparisons.
