The way I have heard it best is this:
A college degree is equivalent to a high school diploma 20-30 years ago.
An advanced degree is equivalent to a college degree 20-30 years ago.
Many people go to college not to learn a specific subject, yet because it is more of a necessity in today's society.
In reality, even your major [except in certain instances] does not have a major bearing on post-collegiate life. The only cases would be if you wanted to go to get an advanced degree (Medical School, Master's Programs, PhD programs, etc.).
Personally, I see college as just another step in my education. I plan on being a doctor so I still have the 4-year step of med school, the 3+ year step of residency to look forward to.
