Abstract
This discussion began as an invitation to comment on the advisability of replacing some of the study of data structure implementation in CS2. It broadened into a discussion of a number of other aspects of computer science education. Dennis Frailey writes from an industrial point of view, although he also teaches computer science on an adjunct basis and was once a full-time academic. Dan McCracken writes from an academic point of view, although he has also worked in industry.
