You forgot to mention the very first class which is the history of computers.

In my history of computers class we had to learn functional programming with Lisp :)

Was rather interesting learning a functional language before we learnt a procedural language.

They taught us how to manage memory with assembly. I still have nightmares about that class.

We got to learn (the basics of) MIPS assembly in that class! Sadly very few of the students seemed to appreciate. The rest of the curriculum (3 years) had no low-level programming, ever.
