I earlier wrote an implicit plea in defense of US tech comm degree
programs. I have worked with far too many talented and totally professional
technical communicators in the States to ever accept the negative comments
made in earlier mails... and not all of them learned their skills and
developed their attitudes on the run.
Even before my mail appeared, (Australia is after all a long, LOO..ong way
away from the listserver shores!!!!) the sorts of mails that I expected in
response to Andrew's posting, started to arrive... namely expressing a
strong appreciation for the academic programs that nurture the young people
coming into our industry.
I enjoyed every one and particularly the last one I read, Kari G's!!!
