Living in the Silicon Valley, I have heard this argument for a while now. To be a real creative force in the technological world or to create jobs to better the economy, you have to drop out of college, sometimes the best colleges in America (Zuckerberg and Moscovitz dropped out of Harvard ) or not even go at all (Gates and Allen). Many other big names can also be mentioned, Flickr, Twitter and Etsy among them, as being founded by college dropouts.
