Ok, but your reputation among employers may go down and that will hurt all of your future students.

Yeah, this is exactly it. Sure, don't take responsibility for evaluations...but ultimately that just hurts the school and the students.

No, it won’t.

Outside of a handful of “elite” schools, I literally could not tell you anything about the quality of most schools.

I care far more that you can actually deliver value.

Interesting, so you might be saying that you think the individual quality at a given school varies a lot more than the difference in average quality from school to school?
