Comment Curriculum (Score 1) 893
How much of this lack of understanding is due to poor curriculum at colleges and universities? When I wanted to study CS, they were offering classes in COBOL, Fortran, and RPG3. I was doing stuff in Pascal and learning C back then. Even then I kew which way the wind was blowing, so I held out and saved my money instead of going to college.
I'd scream like a schoolgirl if I was that age today and saw classes such as GNU C++, Open Architecture Development, Perl, PHP, and Network and Systems Administration courses being offered. And NOT the dime-a-dozen MCSE (Minesweeper Certified Solitaire Expert) night schools, either.
Maybe I'll go get a teaching certificate and save the human race.
