Evergreen State College used pass / fail for grading last I heard. So his claim about 4.0 GPA might not be what it appears.

No Grades, No Majors Because courses are not graded at Evergreen, you won't have a GPA. You aren't awarded any credit for work considered not passing. Your transcript is an in-depth narrative of your college experience, not a number.

That works out to about $12/hr assuming 40hrs/week. A high school dropout working at a meat packing plant in Iowa would start out at $18/hr.

So with a degree, about 12 bucks an hour. Less than a working stiff with no degree got over 40 years ago.
