 Yes, any state university in the country that gives a degree 
 clearly demonstrates the ability of the student to patiently
 jump thru arbitrary hoops consistantly for 4 years. 


 I found that often when I was hiring support staff and
 programmers for PEAK who did not have degrees, that they were
 the ones who could not patiently work thru the problem
 in the space that were not "ideal". IE, the undegreed were the
 first to fly off the handle when something did not fit thier
 world view.
