Likely, but I also think the school/professor selection is a critical variable here. I've hired some great new grads and interns from universities with good engineering reputations that have demonstrated a solid comp-sci foundation. I can't afford to try every school's programming curriculum, but I'm definitely curious and plan to do some more research on this topic.

I plan to take the follow-up C++ courses (at minimum) at this same community college and will hopefully get a better sense of what the other professors have to offer. I hope it gets better, but either way, it's been fun so far.
