There are losers that went to college and winners that didn't.
I had one college grad that was hired as a fast tracker. He was to learn the process and zoom up the corp ladder. He couldn't get out of his own way. I ended up showing him the door.
I had one non college grad that was exceptional. Could do anything and everything but wasn't going to move an inch up the ladder. I talked him into getting a degree. I let him work a schedule that best benefitted him. Some days he came in at 7. Others at 11, 1, or 3. Different days off each week. He got his degree and immediately moved up the ladder even though nothing from the degree actually helped or changed him.
Funny thing is...I didn't have degree and was never denied a promotion. I worked in production, quality assurance, corp training, corp process trouble shooting, and project start up teams. With a degree I would have been in a slightly higher pay grade for the same job. Cost me about 3 grand a year once I topped out in the pay scale.
