UCLA grad here.
I think dropping out of college was the best move I could have made back when I was 18.

In our industry, almost every single time (and we have hired and fired a lot of people in 10 years), Work Experience > Education.

Especially in fields (I was in Computer Science) where technology advances much faster than the schools curriculums.



Not to say anything bad about those who have finished their education though
