I understand that was your experience, but also understand that lots of others have a different experience. I had plenty of friends in college who came in with one career in mind and graduated with a different one. When they started studying in the field, they found it didn't really appeal to them and something else did. Almost all finished in 4 years, so they didn't waste any time or money in the process.
I also know plenty of people who went to college, got a 4-year degree and are now working in a field pretty much unrelated to their degree. Does that mean their whole education was a waste? I don't think so.
