Abstract
In accessing the IS manager's view and the academic's view of Cobol's futur e, this survey found that 95% of its academic respondents and 90% of the IS managers polled want the IS curricula to continue offering Cobol instructi on. Also, nearly 90% of IS managers indicate that Cobol instruction in coll eges should cover both Cobol's OO and Web-based features.
