Totally. I became an engineer by reading the internet.




Seriously, would you say other than the following, you don't really need a college degree?

Engineers
Doctors
Nurses (and other positions in the medical industry)
Lawyers
Teachers
Architects
A job in media (put there are other ways to be "in the media" that doesn't require a degree).

If you are not going to school for any of the above majors then I would say its more valuable to go to a tech school..

Other jobs in academia other than teaching likely require a degree. There are some employers that have certain positions where they would highly prefer a degree. I'd think anything that would require a lot of math/science/research you would prefer to have a candidate with a degree in that field.
