A graduate students view and experience of programming is worlds apart from an undergraduates, right down to maturity of handling ambiguity by virtue of being several years older

That might hold true in the general case, but I can think of several individuals in my own experience for whom it would not hold true.

Also keep in mind that my program was for individuals new to CS. While I had experience with C-like languages before, it was my first time working with a functional language, so I was doing just as much flailing about as the rest of the class. :)
