There used to be barriers to entry into tech - eg no internet, no github - you had to trawl the newsagents for magazines, buy them, spend your weekend typing out code listings, then debugging all the misprints. Enthusiasts only. Nowadays, tech is just another job, non-enthusiasts welcome. University quality varies considerably, and many degrees cater to the just-another-job crowd - the degree is really just a java degree, minimum required get-a-job skills.
