Have an idea of where you want to goto school? Look at their website, majors that they offer, courses descriptions, etc to get a feel of what they teach. At my school for example, for CS majors there are the required classes, but you have to take about 9 hours of CS electives, and in those classes you can pick what you want to specialize in like *nix Administration, .NET programming, etc.

Not only that but barely 20% of college courses might even teach you something.

The best programmers, and employees are self taught.

I don't really agree with this. I did right out of college when I was doing lame programming stuff like VB and ASP, but now that I work in J2EE and .Net, a lot of what I learned in college comes into play on a regular basis. If my college had a couple of mandatory courses in design patterns and enterprise architecture patterns, I would almost go so far as to call it a complete education.
