Some people are still impressed with Oxbridge attendance,
and in this bizarre world where everyone has 35 A****** mega super-plus platinum GCSEs/whatever - yet at the same time barely anyone can read or fucking write properly, I'll bet there are numerous instances where an employer pays more attention to an Oxbridge graduate than one from another, less reputable institution, simply because qualifications have been so devalued of late.

Anyone who cares to delve further that "I got my degree at Oxford" doesn't deserve to be your employer anyway.
