> I think you mean that now a BA/BS is the same thing as a HS diploma from before, because everyone is getting them. Too much focus and attention has been placed on going to college which has essentially devalued the degree. I get annoyed when I meet random morons who graduated from UA, because it reflects poorly on everyone else who has gone there. It seems that now you really need a Master’s to set yourself apart from everyone else, unless you’re in a specialized field.

+1. IMO, only 4 year degrees in a science hold any water these days. Any idiot can bullshit their way through just about any comm/english/history/economics/etc major. It makes it hard for the really bright people that want to work as a businessman or comm specialist or whatever to get taken seriously.
