Not at a university I know of Ed! C++ is a weedout class and not much is taught after the first 2 classes. html is not taught, use FrontPage. Not sure if JAVA is taught...if so, it's a 400 level course. MFC is what is taught..soon to be replaced with .NET. I'll try to find out for sure what is really being taught.
