Or, they've realized that it absolutely IS a waste of time for some people, and those people can be more successful by doing things their own way or even starting their own company. That's what I did.
Yup, but some people like me need structure. In younger years I had the patience to read and watch hundreds of tutorials on how to do things. I can't do that anymore. I don't know - as one get's older one should maybe exercise more patience but I become more restless the older I get. I had to have some sort of structure (College and a schedule) to get shit done. Also, the things that I learned from my peers was often more valuable than the stuff we learned in College. As mentioned above, through some of the science requirements it can steer you in fields you never thought of being interested in (Allele anyone?). Also networking, also chicks (not that I ever got any), also just being around people who can get excited about the same lame stuff you do. (Did you notice the beauty in the descender of the letter J in the Trajan font? )
