I'd agree with this if the diploma had an indication which bucket the degree came from. When I need a brain surgeon, I'd like to know if he/she got the degree on merit or connections.

Is the implication here that the college doesn’t not actually test knowledge? If so, I’m not sure I’d want a doctor from there whether or not he/she happened to be smart as a 17 year old.
