I have read several interesting philosophical comments in this thread,
but let's boil this down to reality. Having a degree is not a guarantee
of a good worker, but it is _one_ sign that you _might_ be willing to
work hard. If I get 98 applications to fill one position, the 28
resumes that don't have a degree are the first ones to go in the trash.
It is not an efficient use of my time to interview every person who
sends in a resume. If you want to compete for a job, you have to look
better on paper than the other bloke.
My 2 cents,
