Oh, I certainly think the degree has been devalued to the point where it really isn't worth anything anymore (at least the Bachelor degress; grad degress might be a different story). I'm not surprised at all with your experience. I see it in the education field as well. I think it's a major component of why colleges now have to teach mathematics below the calculus level: students aren't getting the mathematics they need in high school because of ineffective teachers who didn't earn their degress.
