Have fun getting top engineering talent while requiring a degree from a top university.

To me this screams 'only hire engineers that are like me because they /must/ be the best engineers'.

Sad thing is none of the EXPERIENCED engineers with those degrees will touch Yahoo! with a 10 foot pole.

And I don't care where you graduated from, without experience and good guidance you will be producing mediocre shit and get out performed by a kid who has several years of experience under his belt without any degree.
