in thread Are we a dying breed?

I think you have a different view of "college" than most people here. The only place I have ever encountered serious courses in VB are at the community college (in continuing education courses) and at two-year ITT-Tech type places.

I know that my undergraduate school used to teach Pascal as an initial language, but has now moved to Java.

    I agree with fizbin...the local community collge starts out with Visual Basic and the only other language they provide classes for is Java.
