I couldn't agree with this more, the education system seems to obsess over structure. Concepts get clumped together into classes, which are clumped again into majors. Prerequisites seem to cripple broad intellectual development and force specialization.
I do see the importance of this changing, with increasing weight being given to public work shared over a blog or Github vs. academic transcripts. Hopefully institutional education can evolve to help individuals learn how to search, triage and analyze in a given field.
