Hopefully your CS degree made you write code and submit code for evaluation. Asking you to write code and not teaching you how to use version control is wasting your time fixing problems with your code that are easily solved when you have version control. Being taught how to use version control leaves you more time to learn about programming language semantics.
Also, a university that gives CS degrees to people who cannot actually work as programmers is doing a disservice to their graduates, even if the university intends for everyone to continue with post graduate studies and go into academia. At the very least, your doctoral advisor will need you to write some code for them, and you better be able to do it.
