I got a degree, but I think getting your foot into your first job is really all it's used for.
Bullshitting on resume and learning on the fly works better IMHO. LOL
Pretty much. In some cases the degree requirement is there simply to weed out most of the nepotism.
One of my professors told us honestly that the degree just means that you have the stamina to go through 4 years of compliance without pay. That is a characteristic sought after in employees.
Having been salary for many years, that is true.
Largely true. I never finished my CompSci degree (largely because of all the Diversity courses I'd have been forced to take). But I had an intensive 25-year career in ITS all the same. I even ended up teaching in the same school that had tried to convince me that Diversity courses were indispensable to a knowledge of computing systems and networking.
