Russ Roberts: So the claim here is that the signalling part of school is just a hurdle or a hoop to jump through or over to show that you are capable of jumping - you're capable of sitting and majoring in engineering...
Robin Hanson: Right.
RR: ...it's not so much that you're gonna use the engineering knowledge that you learn in school - it's that you're conveying to a future employer that you have discipline and Sitzfleisch.
Från Wictionary:
Sitzfleisch (uncountable)
- The ability to endure or carry on with an activity.
- 1947, Frank Vigor Morley, "My One Contribution to Chess", Chess Notes, Faber & Faber (1947):
- Sitzfleisch: a term used in chess to indicate winning by use of the glutei muscles--the habit of remaining stolid in one's seat hour by hour, making moves that are sound but uninspired, until one's opponent blunders through boredom.
- 2003, Roy Porter, Flesh in the Age of Reason, Penguin (2004), page 203,
- He never dallied with the image, beloved of the Renaissance, of the lean and shrunk-shanked scholar, possessed of infinite Sitzfleisch and inured to pain.
- 1947, Frank Vigor Morley, "My One Contribution to Chess", Chess Notes, Faber & Faber (1947):
