1975 - BA in Political Science and History
1976 - MBA in International Business Management
1988 - MDiv
Every other year in between and since - stuff I learn along the way, usually by screwing up and paying attention to what just happened.

I can see how this is a sensitive issue. I've seen both sides of it- people with book smarts (a college degree) and no common sense, and people without a college degree who stubbornly insist education is a waste of time.
* I think the sign of true intelligence is admitting you don't know everything and that education is a life long process.

BTW you are right screwed up the name and should have been under graduate. Guess Buck00 just proved his point I go to college but mis-stated exactly what I am supposed to be earning lol.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. I'm currently a semester away from receiving my Masters of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering. After that it's an MBA degree. Oh and I've been working full time as an engineer since I got my BS. Yeah we're all uneducated half wits. Stereotypes suck.

From the 2006 Amercan Community Survey:
10% of the population age 25 or older has completed a graduate or professional degree.
27% have completed a bachelor's degree or higher.
84% have a high school degree or higher.
THR members are in general a highly educated group of people. Or maybe the highly educated members are more likely to respond to a poll about their education level. And why not, a graduate degree may not be any guarantee of intelligence (what is) but it is a significant accomplishment and something to be proud of.
What you do with your education is more important than how you got it.

Went to college at age 45. Got my BBA and sent out 200 resumes to companies: No offers of employment. So I went back to doing firing range management, marksmanship training and EOD stuff in the middle east.
Some good jobs did come my way after my MBA. Still do some consultating, mostly in the middle east. Most middle east companies prefer consultants with advanced degrees.
Nope, ain't any smarter than I was before college. But it sure helped the bottom line.

BS in pharmacy. Different from most BS degrees,in that it required 2 years pre pharmacy + 3 years of pharmacy for total of 5. This was 1968 and no way to finish early due to course progression and prerequisites. Requirements not quite the same as a masters but more total hours than some masters programs.
