So let's say the big thing now is Java (God I hope it's not anymore :) ), companies push colleges to teach Java and how to build a cool Java EE App so they can hire students out of school and have them work right away. Great.<p>5 years later comes language Foo, and that's the next big thing! Now everybody uses Foo! So now companies want colleges to teach Foo to their students. Great, but what happens to the previous generation? They were only taught how to do Java, not Foo. They never learnt the basics of CS, programming, software, etc. They do Java cause that's what was hot when they were in college.<p>Plus the mention of bootcamps is bogus to me. I don't think potential CS students go to bootcamps, aren't bootcamps mostly targeting professionals in other fields who want to change path? I've never heard of someone who wanted to go to college for CS and decided to attend a coding bootcamp instead.
