I thought this thread was going to be about community college vs. university, to which I would have injected my opinions on the matter. Maybe instead I'll search around for a college vs. university thread, if such a thing exists.
Other than that, I would not gauge college vs. no college as much as I would gauge common sense. I've met people with high school only who are just as intelligent and interesting as the average post-secondary graduate.
I won't go into a rant about the state of post-secondary education now, as tempting as it may be.
...I'll search around for that thread.
