Resumen
The author has been concerned with the decline in computer science enrollments nationwide, and it began to increasingly bother him as he prepared for the fall semester last year. With each new freshman class the author worries that fewer students are choosing a career in computer science, and it's no stretch of the imagination to think it's an image problem. And so the message is just not getting out there. Students' firsthand experience with computers is accepted and reinforced by the image people portray in school -- one of unrelenting banality and geekdom -- and potential computer science students do not see themselves as having a greater impact.
