<<But, IBM does not market it well. To me, they still seem to be of the mind that it will sell itself. This whole education initiative is a case in point. There are no 'big name' schools on the list!>>
The big name companies that contribute to the big name schools need to be pushing this initiative! Why do you think the University of Arkansas has a full curriculum in enterprise computing? One of their big contributors need those skills. The UA of students in this program are also given a chance to work as summer interns and co-ops in a large mainframe shop. You can't expect IBM to do it all. The companies needing mainframe skills need to do their part to influence the Universities/Colleges in their area. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
