If your point is that any B.A. is worth about the same as any other B.A., then I agree with you. However, this is definitely not true for Ph.D's, B.S's, M.S's

I'm just arguing from the experience from others, I've known people to lose out on promotions to people with degrees that don't match the job in question. The example with the B.A getting the promotion from the IT guy with an A.A came down to the higher degree weight and the fact the B.A came from Indiana University as opposed to this dudes degree form Ivy Tech
