Of course, but I know Sean well enough to assume he's not going for a degree in basket-weaving (or landscape architecture ;). If it's on his evaluation as a goal, then he felt it was an activity that supported the company's goals. There's also the argument that pursuit of a degree in itself helps one to be a better thinker, better writer, better problem solver, etc. I've always been surprised how one skill can "cross over" to something entirely different that you would never expect.
