I had to do a final project in ColdFusion in a web dev class in college (2006 I think?). It was a class where we had also used Perl, PHP and classic ASP. After that class I spent a lot more time with PHP and eventually ASP.NET, never touched ColdFusion again.
Unrelated, but by far the worst part of the class was the requirement to connect to MS Access databases, which were notoriously tricky to avoid locking, after which point the whole application would stop working until you figured out why. Many of us would keep a “clean” snapshot of the database around with the expectation we would somehow break/lock/corrupt the one the website was using. A reboot would also fix it but took a lot longer back then…
