Many college degrees, in practice, don't lead to high paying careers. It means that one is well educated in terms of book learning, but not necessarily in the practical skills ones needs for success outside of school.
I think that the emphasis on college is a hold over from an earlier time, when relatively few went. Having a college degree might have seemed special at one time because they were scarce.
I recall an article I read once, probably at least ten years ago, that argued that many people would be better off if they went into some form of job training right out of high school.
