I prefer to take a different perspective: college didn't fail you, you failed at going to college. College is a place to gain knowledge from those that have more than you. If you see it as anything else (especially anything malicious) then you're looking at it from the wrong angle and coming in with the wrong attitude. A motivated person can gain a lot of insight and knowledge from even the shittiest of situations. College classes are a completely valid way to learn things. If you think that you're entrepreneurial dreams will be fulfilled if you drop out, then go for it. Some people don't learn that way, and that's just as acceptable. There are problems with higher education, and some places more so than others. But don't be so vain as to denounce the entire institution of higher education from a single anecdotal data point.
