I wish they did Obj C/Cocoa at my school...but instead, Microsoft has
already gotten hold of my school (Cornell) :-(. I am not certain of the
details, but I believe that there are plans to have a MANDATORY C# course
for all CS majors. IMO, this is ridiculous. I could see having an optional
class in C# as well as Cocoa, but geez, talk about trying to get a following
for a language...and reps come all the time, giving away software and
sponsoring this event or that...Microsoft knows how to start rounding up
developers at a young age...
I wish Apple would pursue academia as vigorously. *sigh*
