  abstract =     "Recently, two of our stronger graduate students had
                 trouble finding work as software developers. Both
                 students had done masters-level work in operating
                 systems, networking, software engineering, and various
                 ``hot'' technologies, including Java, C++, and
                 client-server computing. Both students had also worked
                 as programmers before starting graduate school. Given
                 these credentials, I was surprised when these students,
                 in effect, had to move closer to prospective employers
                 before they gave serious consideration to their
                 resumes. My students' experiences caused me to conduct
                 an informal survey about the perceived value of a
                 computer science degree. In October 1998, I asked
                 employees from 23 exhibitors at OOPSLA '98---software,
                 consulting, and training firms---to assess what their
                 company expected from any applicant with a BS or MS in
                 computer science. What follows are my findings,
                 together with concluding observations regarding what
                 these findings might signify.",
