I was going to say the same thing, there real issues with college and education but the whole debate right now is starting to feel like a lot of sensationalism.
I went to college and did Mathematics. Why? Cause it looked cool. Was I good at it? Not really I had a hard time with many of my classes but I enjoyed the material. It was interesting even if useless. It's all about what you want to get out of college. I wanted to learn something interesting.
The best part is it wasn't useless at all in the end. Nobody really cares about what your degree is in except for some specific jobs and get it cheap (that even goes for Ivy schools, they are now cheaper than many private sub Ivy schools due to Financial aid).

If someone spends $100,000 on school and they don't make that after graduating, people label it as a failure. College's worth shouldn't be evaluated in a purely financial context.
