I went to a top 10 CS school, and and picked a CS major in part because I already had some interest in programming. I beat them all at programming easily, even in the honors classes. I'm not even good at it, I didn't take it seriously or anything; I beat them all by having a fairly minimal genuine interest. I value the degree as something interesting I spent my time doing, but it taught me very little in the way of actual programming.
