Computer Science as a Major and as a Career

http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot?m=4775

some interesting comments

some interesting figures

Most lucrative college degrees
In survey of the Class of 2006, engineers still get top salary offers, but accounting and finance majors are climbing quickly.


Tons of comments suggest students before the ".com bust" were in computer science for the money, and now the students are in it because its what they like. I agree for the most part, but I still know some guys that don't plan on doing cse stuff after graduating. I can say I'm glad the money is still there, but I couldn't leave computer science for anything. Finance maybe, only maybe.
