Even though I’m no elitist, and I think most college degrees are very overrated, I do think that they are half-educated. Dropping out off college is hardly a badge of honor or success.

If this is the logic you get after fours years of college, no wonder college has a bad rap. You logic is flawed and you spelling sucks. Look at the contradictions in just two short sentences.

And you think that education, as opposed to credentialization and indoctrination, is what college is about these days?

No but if you are a brilliant programmer, you still might not be able to pass math or English.

Depends on why you dropped out. These guys all dropped out because running the companies they’d created didn’t leave a lot of time for school. I went to college specifically to get the resume up and get a job, so while I didn’t graduate I don’t consider myself a dropout, I achieved the goal I had going in.
