I call b#ll$hit on this. Some of the best software people, do not have any college degree.

Sure. But what do you think the odds are that this particular individual is one of those self-made computer experts? Do you picture her spending long hours reading the manuals and hacking away to figure out how things work?

And while we're on the subject, how many self-made computer experts were music majors? The ones I knew didn't have a degree of any kind. To get a degree in music, you have to make a conscious decision that music is going to be your focus, and that your time is best spent pursuing that particular focus. Self-made computer guys I knew spent all of their time doing COMPUTER STUFF. Big difference.

VERDICT: diversity hire
