As the linked Twitter thread implies, I don't even look at degrees when I do my hiring. I hear that, in the security industry, it's even worse where people with degreed are discriminated against for being filled with worthless and downright wrong bits of knowledge. Based on the latest round of entry level interviews I've had held in software land with recent college graduates, I'm inclined to agree.

College as STEM job training is absurd and clearly a failure. As you say, it's about much more than job training, but I would argue it doesn't even do that. Hell, it makes applicants worse somehow.
