Title: RE: [jdjlist] gap between universities and employers ????

sf.net has "tens of thousands of projects" so I am sure that you can find something. :-)   James Amos Nathaniel Stauffer    -----Original Message----- From: Tim Nicholson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 3:09 AM To: JDJList Subject: [jdjlist] RE: gap between universities and employers ????   Greg -- the problem is that the software that employers want you to have skills with, either students can have no access to them at all -- ie they're way too expensive or they might have a "trial version" that lasts for maybe a week or so. That seems to be all that is available.   I'll look into any open source projects that might be available. Don't know if there are a lot of these around though ?   (I'm now writing 1 email to respond to all the emails that I have recieved on this subject -- so that I don't by responding to each email in turn, end up sending out a whole lot of emails)   ======================================================================== Spencer Thomas wrote :-   If you go to a University expecting vocational training, you're going to the wrong place. What employer wants Latin, after all? :-) ===============================================================   I *do* go to university expecting vocational training. And that's why for one thing, I don't study Latin.     ======================================================================   Betty Schwartz writes :-   "Uusally everyone's resume could be improved"   --> yeah maybe.Still don't think that would really solve the problem though.   "my contribution in the final year project"   --> yeah that maybe could help ==============================================================   Thanks TommCatt for your comments as well.   ____________________________________________________ To change your JDJList options, please visit: http://www.sys-con.com/java/list.cfm Be respectful!
