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.

My entire point is that any CS degree from any university is meaningless unless you know that university's CS program is actually good
