Every day that I'm in my current job I realize while getting an MIS degree how little I actually learned. I've gained more marketability just from the work experience I have gotten at the BA and now with Perot Systems.

Honestly, the same goes for a lot of degrees. What you need to know varies from job to job -- the degree gives you the foundation of understanding, but you learn a LOT on top of that in each job.

Isn't that true for almost any job/degree combination?

Outside of vocabulary and brushing a few general topics, nothing you ever do in college will amount to what you learn through experience.
