It depends strongly on where you go. I dropped out in my 20's because I was learning bugger all from completely disinterested lecturers. I'm picking it up again

It depends strongly on where you go. I dropped out in my 20's because I was learning bugger all from completely disinterested lecturers. I'm picking it up again at 31 (new university) and I'm not only mostly enjoying it but I'm even enjoying "bullshit" subjects that have nothing to do with CS. Some universities (I would assume most) are businesses that print degrees and answer to shareholders, others are learning institutions that answer to students.
