I don't think "ethics" is a trash course. At Texas A&M CS is in the College of Engineering. Engineering Ethics is a required course to graduate. One of the major points was using the Challenger disaster as an example case, hammering home the importance of doing whats right, not want management pressures you to do. Furthermore, anyone with a CS Degree should be able to teach themselves new languages without any problems. When I see people complaining saying that "their school is not teaching them language X" I cringe. Universities are not vocational training, you are supposed to be able to handle independent study.
