My opinion, based on my experience:
There is an expectation that getting a degree is not, or should not be, a lot of work.
Many people confuse getting a degree with getting an education.
As evidenced in many areas. For example, a DMA degree does not
guarantee one a performing gig. It may not even guarantee a teaching gig.
I know of a few engineers who went back to school after getting a DMA in
order to find a regular paying job.
Indeed, when I was a young man, almost nobody in my department had a
degree in Computer Science. It lent a great deal of variety to the work
environment.
