What's so bad about degrees? I know there was this discussion a while ago, but I forgot the gist of it.

I guess you don't need a degree to do a startup, but on the other hand, if you are young and you enjoy learning, there are worse things to do than hang around on campus of a nice university? I personally missed learning when I entered the "workforce". Sure, I try the odd new thing now and then, but it is not the same as the dedicated effort I made at university.
