Not at all. You don't goto a University to learn about things that will nescisarily help you in the real world. You learn how to THINK.
My computer science degree didn't directly teach me anything I needed to use in the real world, however, it did teach me how to THINK like a computer scientist. And the math part of the curriculum has paid dividends.
The only people I ever really saying that a CS degree is worthless are the ones that don't have one.
