Ha, yeah, I started at a community college, for an associates in IT, and it was mostly Cisco, Visual Basic, and MS SQL. Went to a 4 years school for a BS, and it was more about logic and different programming paradigms. Then at grad school, it was mostly theoretical stuff and algorithm analysis.
I'm glad I never took it. Been employed in the field for thirty years.
Kinda glad I took the community college IT/infra route when I went back to school a little bit ago, but still scared for the future lol.
