Bravo! I couldn't agree more. In fact, I think the split is LONG
OVERDUE. There are, I think, a few programs in software engineering 
around. For example, there's the Wang Institute for Graduate Studies 
in Tyngsboro, Mass. that offers a Master's degree in software 
engineering. Anyone know of any other S.E. programs?
