It's not that college is worthless, but the amount of work between something like Computer Science and Physics against, say, English, Philosophy, Women's Studies, Sociology is staggering. I know engineers who are abusing Adderral and amphetamines because staying up for that hour longer makes all the difference between being behind the curve or being AT the curve. I would stay up days at a time preparing for a midterm and still get the average score.
What would my roommates, my friends roommates, the entire GODDAMN non-hard science/non-hard engineering side be doing? Bitch about a paper that they end up writing in a drunk haze (aka a rant) and sleep most of the time.
Whereas the hard science/engineering groups are working their asses off for deliverables, motherfucking business majors with 1/10th the major stress and the highest average GPA would be partying at the frats across the street, freely trading coke and heroin.
I lived in an engineering fraternity for three years. And I can tell you one thing -- for a fraternity, they partied at most once every two weeks, and usually for one day (Thursday). The worst I ever saw in drugs was marijuana, adderrall and mdma. No coke, no heroin, nothing of that sort. Maybe a few psychedelics here and there, but that was the extant.
So yeah, college degrees are devalued because of the disparity in work.
FYI -- engineering usually has, on average, the lowest GPA's per any major (at least at UCLA). Business usually has the highest average GPA. Who does real work? You do the figuring.
