Only thing I've finished so far is high school, and I doubt I'll be anymore intelligent because of my education by the time I finish my BA.

I, however, don't judge people's intelligence by a degree, or lack thereof, nor by the amount of money they make, or the square footage of the house they are paying a 30 year loan on...

What proves intelligence in people is how they deal with life and it's challenges. Anyone with half a brain can aquire book smarts, but books smarts don't teach critical thinking, creativity, social skills... which are skills that are much more valuable in life than any degree.

Please note that I'm not saying that people with degrees are not intelligent, but the level of their education, or lack thereof, is a lousy measure of their intelligence.
