Have you tried talking to, not only the MIS department, but the Dean and the placement office? Perhaps they are dropping it because of lack of interest, not on your part, but on the part of the students. How do you encourage new students? I don't know if most students give a rip about the green screen versus GUI argument, they want money. To encourage this maybe scholarships, co-op work, and what not may be used to entice them. We participate in a local program in which budding high school data processing wanna be's spend a day with us. You should see their eye's pop up when we mention one of our employee benefits is full tuition reimbursement. kevinw@hurtcompanies.com on 05/07/99 02:05:53 PM Please respond to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com@Internet To: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com@Internet cc: Subject: Re: IBM Secret (Was Copy to New AS400 via TCP) Arkansas State dropped/is dropping RPG from the schedule amongst protest from those of us out here still trying to find talented people.... ----- Original Message ----- From: Colin Williams <Williamsc@technocrats.co.uk> To: <MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com> Sent: Friday, May 07, 1999 2:22 AM Subject: IBM Secret (Was Copy to New AS400 via TCP) It still amazes me that although the AS/400 is a very popular midrange business system all around the world, many non AS/400 people still have not even heard of it, or RPG.

How many colleges/universities actually teach RPG Regards from London,UK Colin.W +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +--- +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +--- +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
