When my wife went to school to get a Master's in Library Science,
circa mid 1980's, she took a programing course in PL/I. By the
late 1980's the same school had replaced it with a computer course that
included producing a WordPerfect document, a Lotus spreadsheet and
a Dbase  database.

Luckily the school stopped their MLS program before it became Google and
the Wikipedia. :-(
