Are you sure? Because you seem to not grasp the details of my post apparently.

Er, it's great you elaborated the general misconception, but my point is that these people base their opinion based on the success of the prior generation, who are having trouble finding jobs, because they got a degree that isn't sought after skill in society. So they plan college rather than "Hey I got a degree in super smash brothers melee, why aren't I sucessfuly, I went to college!"

There's far more that goes into what's wrong with the current state of college than students getting degrees in worthless subjects, and it's rather shallow to believe that that's the major issue here
No the top issue is they don't have experience, by far. Those are the two biggest factors that I have come to notice with my friends, some just want to run after their hobby, under the optimistic "Do what you love and you won't work a day in your life", where I choose never to work my hobby's as they will become stale and annoying to me.
It doesn't help that a 4Y degree is equilavent to what a high school diploma was 10 years ago.
