There's a couple of issues, I think:

- you can get a degree from a lot of universities without learning what you should

- schooling is no substitute for work experience

- software hiring is still generally broken

On top of those, you've got to keep learning when you're out of school. A university degree doesn't remotely guarantee that you'll be suitable for even an entry-level developer job right at graduation, and the correlation between time and skill gets looser as time goes on.
