University

How many SEOs do you think have university and college degrees? If you thought about 2/3rds, you'd be right. A Twitter poll conducted by Brodie Clark asked SEO professionals: do you have a University degree? 67% said yes and 33% said no to that question.

I wonder if the responses would be different on LinkedIn? Here you go:
