Of course not. I didn't say eliminate college. I said de-legitimize it. 

Right now there is an assumption that college  = education. Both sides are 
false. Yes, there are great college educations : I fully expect to send my 
daughter to a four-year college. But many universities deliver a lousy or 
useless education (see: occupy wall street protesters ). And many non- 
traditional forms are superior in many ways to the typical college experience ( 
though still below the best).

My goal is to break that assumption so colleges have to compete as one of 
several socially-acceptable forms of post-secondary education, experience and 
credentialing.
