You can't learn C in isolation. Even though C is full of surprising and unexpected behavior, it is a very simple language. Great C programmers didn't study C. They studied computer architecture, compilers, algorithms, and operating systems. The power of C only reveals itself when you gain a deep understanding of how the computer works.
University is a good place to gain that understanding.
If you'd rather work on web stuff then you probably don't need to understand any of it. Learn a popular language and get to work.
