I have to admit, though: I don't know how this [college degree] applies to a controller.

I can't find the cite now, but I recall reading that the prime
requirement for ATC controllers was some sort of natural aptitude,
much like that required of top computer game players.

I suspect, that military ATC controllers are not required to possess a
college degree. Perhaps that's where the impetus for FAA dropping the
requirement stems.
