Blanket statements like this are foolish. My own college experience had a lot of regurgitation, but whether you make productive use out of your time there is completely within your hands. I was able to do challenging, hands-on research, make connections that lead to my last two jobs, and build a solid resume. However, if you choose to party it up all the time, and/or only do the bare minimum to get through, you probably shouldn't bother.
