Computer Science Education Act

A friend of mine said something very profound over beers the other night in reference to an algorithms II course he took at the local university

    "You can have a career after taking just that course."

Now, it isn't quite that simple—the statement isn't 100% correct, but it does touch on something special. With a basic algorithms course passed, (i.e., you did the homework, participated, and didn't just watch all the lectures in a weekend binge) you can probably get a basic career these days. You won't work for Facebook or Google, but the knowledge learned in just an algorithms course combined with our modern society's demand for those skills means you can find work and even a career.

That's amazing.

Didn't they try this before ? http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/112/s1614
