I agree with the author, but only to an extent. It certainly seems to be the case that the degree itself matters less and less when finding a job. I myself don't have a degree, although I did go to college. On the other hand, I think the real problem is that most people go to college because they think it will help them land a job. This is certainly true in some fields as the author stated. But, I honestly feel like you should go to school to learn, not to get a job. If you wanted the skills to land a job you should go to a trade school, not a RESEARCH university. I have been able to get jobs without a degree, but I definitely do not regret going to college. If anything I wish I could go back and study more, because I really do feel like the things I learned helped me become a better developer.
