> Employers are allowed to test students to see what they can do, but not evaluate them based on whether they went to school or where. One of my father's arguments, in trying to motivate me to focus on a degree, was that it helped show future employers that I can stay on task over a period of time. I'm not sure how much of a role that really plays, but to whatever degree that matters to employers and a degree is helping to demonstrate it, it would be difficult to test directly in anything resembling an interview setting.
