I read recently that employeers arn't taking students with computer science degrees because of their lack in communication skills. A large company mentioned was ICI. Apparently the best degree is Biology rather than the Arts for obvious reasons. I think however this will be realised by the computer educational institutions and communication will be a larger part of comp sci degrees in the future, before the computer industry stops employing comp sci grads.
