YDKM, you are right, you are probably somewhat biased because you didn’t go to college. Truthfully, most college-educated girls prefer the same in boys, unless they really want only a learning boy. Girls AND boys need to be educated. I don’t agree that it isn’t so important. If all Jews felt that way, we would have no frum doctors,lawyers,. accountants, businessmen, teachers, etc. And we SORELY need frum people in those professions, if only to keep the rest of the world on their toes. I do agree that higher education is NOT for everybody. Some people cannot hack it and others may be getting into a profession where the education is irrelevant, i.e. working in their family business, where it is more important to learn the business from inside itself. But the truth is, nothing is certain in life, and it can only benefit the person who is better-educated than the one who is not.
