I strongly disagree.
First of all, to work in the computer science field (programmer, tester, network/database admin, security expert etc), you don't necessarily need comp sc. degree.
Get trained in the field of your choice within 6 months and you will be good.
But if you get other degrees, at least you now have options. As you already stated, people in EE etc can get comp sc jobs, then why take comp sc degree? That student now has option to pick between EE and comp science. But if he had comp sc. degree he certainly cannot get job in EE, biology, Mathis etc.
