Degrees are meaningless, excepting places like CalTech. I’ve known too many ‘programmers’ who had a CS degree yet were damn near useless to think otherwise. Not to mention my own CS degree taught me almost nothing.
I wouldn't say it was a shit university, part of it is that I knew how to write code before I got there. But the CS program wasn't great. My entire point is, if someone has a CS degree from University X and you don't know if that program at that university is any good, the degree is meaningless. If the university's CS program isn't any good, you can't count on the degree meaning anything.
The amount of unqualified people is staggering beginning with those who have no university education.
I don't see it as a problem, because qualifications without competence are meaningless.
You should be more concerned with how qualified people end up performing worse and being less educated, knowledgeable, and prepared than unqualified people.

I think you meant that your degree was meaningless?
Seems like you went to a shit university
If you're worried about your degree's worth then you are certainly not he right person to talk about going through a shit university.
