I didn't really interpret this as a knock against college. More like a cautionary tale about "entry-level" work in hyper-competitive industries that end ups amounting to slave labor with no future prospects to speak of. I really can't understand, for instance, why one of the characters here interested in producing would seek toxic employment with the dying movie studios. With platforms like Kickstarter that circumvent traditional barriers to the entertainment industry (and other creative sectors), it's hard to imagine a bright future for old, gatekeeping jobs. She would probably be better served looking for marketing or sales work at a tech company.
