The question isn't bootcamp vs STEM Bachelors. It is STEM bootcsmp vs English Bachelors or No Bachelors.

Boot camp is essentially equivalent to one good semester of college. The most calale first-year college students are ready for a internship, not professional programming job.

I used to be in the "eff college do bootcamp" side of things. I think that's wrong now. Young people need some of what college gives you and also what bootcamps provide -- if they want a coding career.
