[KLUG Members] Dropping CIS enrollments

[econophil at charter.net]

I've just been talking to CIS instructors at KVCC. Several of their usual courses were cancelled due to low enrollment and in general their enrollments have plummeted.

Question to those of you "out there" who see what is happening in the job market: 
--Are students not taking these courses because they've learned that there aren't jobs in the field? 
--Do students need a bachelor's in CIS rather than an associate's, to get jobs today? Or do they need computer science?
--Is it Kalamazoo?
--What should students be taking these days if not CIS/computer science?
