Actually, it's not. In fact, it's probably worse than buying a house in 2005 was. Student debt is the next huge bubble to burst.

It's just that in this case, taking a few extra classes for a CS minor is totally worth it over graduating a semester sooner.

I'm not really suggesting that the minor degree is going to be valuable, but that the specific stuff he'll learn in those classes he list is worth knowing for the tough job market he's about to enter.
