Since 2008, Stewart Strawbridge has served as managing member of Selkirk Partners, a long-short equity investment partnership. Prior to starting his career, Stewart Strawbridge studied classics at Bowdoin College, which recently received mention from the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce (CEW) for its high financial return on investment.
In an effort to measure the return on investment of studying at a private college versus a public college, the Georgetown CEW recently conducted a study titled “A First Try at ROI: Ranking 4,500 Colleges.” The report listed Bowdoin among the five best colleges in the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) and other similar liberal arts colleges in terms of the highest return on investment 10 years after enrollment. For the same measure at 15, 20, 30, and 40 years after enrollment, Bowdoin ranked among the top two or three schools. Overall, the report showed that, 40 years after enrollment, graduates of private colleges reported a net economic gain of $838,000, compared to $765,000 for graduates of public colleges.
