Sure a college degree shows they can do whats expected and still get by.

A counter point to this would be You are interviewing to individuals for a job and the only thing missing from one is a degree?

Perhaps the person without a degree didn't have the money for college or had personal life happenings that prevented them from going. Yet they managed to get into an interview. Shouldn't a few more justified questions about how they get to where they are now?

This could show you that the person who didn't go to college as the favorable hire(through hard work), opposed to someone whom is or was more economically advantaged?

Instead this one has a checked box(college) and this one doesn't, the more checked boxes justify the outcome.
