I went to school at a small liberal-arts college in Oklahoma;
usao.edu.  A few years after I got out, universities went nuts
about Visual Basic and C++, etc.

(this was in the days when the entire campus ran on a VAX 4000-700A, 
with a lab full of Dell 486/20s running Pathworks, doing LAT terminal
 sessions to the VAX...)
