Presumably, the point behind college is to do more than drink, party, and have a sheet of paper that shows some baseline amount was learned through the drunken haze. What that baseline is, and how much the person is toeing it, isn't really obvious with just a official sheet of paper.
I do hope, however, that the market is not overzealous in what it dismisses. The degree itself might be nearly worthless; however, the path to the degree can yield surprisingly different results depending on the person and whether they cared more about the journey or the destination, be that a degree or a job. For my part, I couldn't care less about the sheet of paper I was given. The knowledge I gained, and the interesting and insightful conversations I had, made the process of getting the degree far from worthless.
