I wrote a blog awhile back that kinda relates to this. I argued that employers should be focusing on developers with great portfolios of innovative and USEFUL software, rather than focus only on candidates who have earned a degree.
If a hacker decides to get a degree, it shouldnt be because the job he wants requires it. Rather college should be a personal pursuit to accomplish a life goal. Something for them to look in the mirror and say, "Your pretty damn bitchin at this thing called life."
