I asked the HR director of our company what her thoughts were on why employers require degrees. Her personal opinion is below.

You will get different personal opinions from different managers/leaders.  I think it all depends upon the job that one is hiring for. Some job tasks clearly require specific training - such as lawyers, doctors, etc.

It seems the below is pertaining to an entry level job.  In these cases, I personally like hiring those who have a degree or are working towards one (regardless of what it is) because it shows a commitment towards improving oneself and striving to complete a large task.  It shows that someone is a self-starter and focused on accomplishment.

Of course, this is just my personal opinion.
