College is clearly a good investment in today's job market, since a degree is a prerequisite to so many jobs. Whether things should be that way -- i.e., whether the actual learning is worth the cost -- is a much more complex question.

Depends on field of study too. Medicine is the most prominent field where I wouldn't trust someone without proof that they had passed a rigorous program of study. I mean, in theory, a person could study on his own and gain all necessary knowledge without formal training. (Which is probably what Smuffin was saying.) But I'm not going to trust my life to that possibility.
