This isn't really news to anyone, but the headline dramatically understates the actual situation if we extend beyond the conventional understanding of 'jobs that require a college degree'

What the article discusses are lower-paying, non-"professional" jobs that don't include a degree as a required qualification, however the majority of jobs which do "require" a college degree (your typical non-specialist corporate role, for ex.) only use that requirement as a filtering mechanism when hiring. That "requirement" doesn't actually reflect a need for any specific knowledge/experience that might result from getting a college degree, which is evident when we consider those hiring for these positions don't usually care what degree an applicant has - only that they can tick off the "college degree" checkbox.
