Two articles present industry and higher education viewpoints of education's role. The industrial author states that education must (1) change faculty and student attitudes, (2) teach about actual industrial practice, (3) teach business concepts, and (4) improve the quality of its product. The higher education author argues that education must improve its flexibility. (CH)
