What do they tell you in school (Waterloo or Ryerson) about the offshore programming and your career?

Are the students concerned that offshore programming will mean that they can't make a career out of software development?

I'm personally concerned that the interesting jobs - like systems development - will go offshore and the boring jobs - like designing screens to look exactly as the client wants - will stay here.  I'm a C++ developer.

Tom.
