its good for CV padding if you don't have a lot of work experience, its also good to learn more.
I agree, what you learn in college become pretty much irrelevant after a period of time, however, unless you own your own company or you're a genius most employers will hesitate to promote you to a managerial position if you don't have a degree. I see this where I work all the time. The person is ambitious, has skill, has a desire to lead, but the boss won't promote her because my freind isn't a college graduate.
