That is the traditional comment about Durham.Must confess, though I hear a wide range of good and bad things about a wide range of places, I never hear anything good about Durham. That is of course subject to profound sampling error, and bias from those I hear from.To be sure I think some managers might take a negative view, but the bias is based upon undergrad intake, not research or PhD.But the bias does exist, can't really comment upon whether it is rational, but will say it is quite small and shouldn't really affect your decision.
