Yes. However, it's not about whether you use X after school. The point of 
college isn't to get a degree, or to learn any specific knowledge or skill. 
The goal of any good university is to teach you how to think in an analytical 
fashion, something most non-college-educated people don't achieve until 
they're over the age of 50, if ever.
