College has helped me out to a point. I have only an AA degree in computer tech. It's come in handy when building or fixing computers, networking, and dealing with software issues.
The college I went to was a business school, so they were heavy on the English - we gave presentations every week. I questioned it at the time, but when I was chosen to speak in front of the president of Pac Bell (where I worked) and 100 other people I knew what to do - and I was on the fast track to management there.
In this industry things are a bit different. People with no business skills what so ever try to run a business and end up failing. You all know some of the failures.
The bottom line is this - When someone is looking to hire someone, they would pick a college grad over someone who never went to college. At the very least it shows that someone is able to make a long term committment and stick to it.
