I don't believe that at all. I mean that's what most people think, but most people also think that going to Uni is supposed to teach you how to do something. Which is not true; if you want skill training go to a technical or professional school.
What students should pursue is something they're passionate about, not what will, in theory, make them the most bank. Unless the student doesn't mind doing something they might hate for the next 30-40 years.
A Bachelor's degree is just about enough time and effort for many people to figure out what they're passionate about, if they're lucky.
My unpopular opinion for this post: Law and Medicine are no worse or better fields than Plumbing; they all require technical qualifications.
