Because everybody who studies CS wants to be an entrepreneur? Of course you don't need a degree in Computer Science to develop a technology startup. Web design is a trade skill and should be excluded entirely from an academic curriculum. Sadly, some universities are being pressured into offering it due to increased demand from an influx of wannabe sellouts. I decided to pursue a college degree because I'm interested in solving challenging engineering problems that your two-bit startup and myopic vision couldn't possibly begin to encompass. So, Mr. Kendall, you have it rather backwards: it's not universities that are in the wrong but rather students who come in with maligned expectations and the determination to under-utilize their academic training.
