CS majors learn to really program
I have to disagree. People with a real passion for programming will use a CS program to become even better at programming.
Other people, lured by the promises of big $, can get through a CS program with a bit of effort and at the end still be worse then average coders.
That's certainly what I experienced when I got my CS degree. About half the people loved to program and the other half hated it and weren't good at it, but still got their degrees. A CS degree does not make you into a good coder, it can help you be one, but it doesn't make you.
