>Seems like a coordinated approach between government, industry and education should resolve most of the issues and save money down the road. Canada doesn't have a good record of doing that kind of thing. In the early 1990's, when the University of Waterloo dropped the requirement of COBOL for the co-op programme in Computer Science, rather than working it out with them, at least one Canadian Bank just stated they will not hire co-ops from there, anymore. No coordination, accomodation, or olive branch. Just a blanket statement that implied no hiring even if the co-op had COBOL. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
