They are trying to prepare you for what "they believe" businesses want.
What will give you the best opportunity to get a job once out of college.
When I was in college our teachers sat down with the businesses that came to
campus for recruiting and asked "What should we be teaching to suit your
needs".  The courses taught reflected their needs.  The perception in the
business world is on things such as (but not limited to): C, C++, COBOL,
Graphics, and M$ products.

I think your doing it the right way, on your own.  This is how I learned PHP
and use it for a majority of our web development.

Subject: [PHP] Computer Science and PHP


I am a student in a college in NY state. Here we have several servers and
dozens of courses on computer science. No server is PHP ready and no course
instructor knows anything about PHP. Why do you think this is happening? I
really like PHP and I am using it in my personal website to work with some
text files and a small database. Why PHP is so not popular in the computer
science teaching area?

F.G.
