TESC BBA CIS or Computer Science? Which is better for employers

Sez the guy with the PMP?? milelol:

Ah, but I'm not a developer, hence the "no offense".

One of the best developers our team ever had was absolutely brilliant, yet somehow thought it was a a good idea to go have coins made (actual coins, he sent off for them) with our logo on one side and a black hole illustration on the other. Then started handing them out to our clients saying "I feel this is an accurate description of where your money is going." When I later asked him what in the $#&! he was thinking, he said it all started with an argument his team lead and him had over how something was going to be done. He didn't agree with the lead's decision, so figured he better warn the customers. All made perfect sense to him. /sigh

This is one example of almost a decade of similar stories. I wasn't kidding about the worth of a developer with PM skills. Show me a developer (doesn't even have to be a great one) that can act as a manager and keep the rest of the team sorta-happy and productive, and I will pay that man/woman extremely well.

P.S. - The black hole rock-star now works in Redmond. I have no doubt that Microsoft has someone watching him like a hawk, but also no doubt that he's doing great things for them. Guy was a brilliant programmer, but good lord I wanted to kill him at times.
