I think the level of college you go to is important. The Author even says places like MIT teach you more theory and mathematical aspects of CS. That is also true of Berkeley and Stanford (I can't attest for any schools other than that). I think the higher universities with older programs would be more inclined to teach theoretical than younger programs just starting during the dot com boom or during the past few years.
