Clearly you are not aware of some of the absolutely ridiculous things they teach in university.
Why don't you enlighten us.
There are many degrees that teach you ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that will help you in the real world.
This is simply an opinion devoid of any fact.
Just getting a degree in anything is no guarantee of anything.
I mean how the hell is majoring in Art History or Music or Elizabethan Poetry going to give you a 'higher level of critical thinking, reading comprehension, logic or proficiency in new technology,'?
You will have to take and pass roughly 40 college level courses to obtain a bachelors degree, plus any additional college requirements for that specific field. Almost all major universities and all state-funded schools have core requirements in composition, college algebra, science, art, etc... that students must pass in order to obtain their degree. Students that receive college degrees are more informed, have better communication and logic skills, know how to use new technology, and make contacts. Unless of course you quit after year one.
It ain't....not in the slightest.
You don't know what you're talking about.
But you want people to fork over their hard earned tax dollars so these wankers can go and spend four years and over $100K each so they can learn these useless degrees.
