Good. Honestly two of the best programmers I worked with was over a decade ago and they didn't even finish high school.
A college degree in computer science is really a joke these days. I've asked our college interns "I'm doing a survey, how many programs did you think you've written in your life?" The average was 3. Seniors in college who maybe wrote 3 programs in python ever, then get a job because they're multiple ticks on the diversity box. This is normal for big tech firms. I wrote more code than those intern when I was in 6th grade on a fucking calculator.
Computer science degrees turned into liberal arts degree very fast and people need to recognize it. When I went to college 15+ years ago, computer science was only 25% of the classes of its degree. I left immediately and went to an engineering college where computer science meant you wrote code from sun up to sun down
