I do think the fast ideation strategies I learned in art school definitely help me in software development, as well as not becoming overly attached to my children and accepting criticism. There are, for sure, many wonderful lessons to be learned in creative classes that cross over. I haven't been to a "Code Camp", but I have to imagine that this form of purely technical training (on its own) would have its down sides (though, I only have a liberal arts education as well, who stumbled into a technical field because of my hobbies).
