Here, here!! I graduated with a BA in Theater Design in 1984 (when yes, I
know, most of you were drooling or at the most, coloring....).  When I
decided to do a career switch and get into web development, I went back to
school for a MA in Computer Resources and Information Management and
graduated in 1999.  My MA classes were mostly management classes...decidedly
NOT technical in any way, but having the degree opened LOTS of doors with
potential employers, and paved the way to getting that web development job.

For those of you youngsters out there pondering this thread and thinking "I
don't need a degree", I have some advice. Although some of the arguments for
not getting a degree are somewhat logical, having a degree gives you
options. Just like having money gives you options. It makes life easier.
There are many exceptions, but if you want to go with the smart money odds,
get that degree.
