Ditto on the CS Degree. Closest thing I learned to the above skills that was part of the curriculum was Waterfall, UML, and making ERDs. Had to teach myself git.

I taught every single person I was on a group project with git, all the way up through senior year. My familiarity with it came from a damn hackathon of all places. It's actually gross how source control was just not a concept taught at all in the program.
You joking right? I got my cs degree 15 years ago and back then i learned Waterfall, UML, and making ERDs...
It is still the same people teaching the courses probably.
Did git exist at the time you were in school? Or are you using it as a generic term for an SCM?
Sounds like my Software Engineering class I took in ~2002. One of the few CS classes I got a B in (totally my fault). Almost 100% BS. About the only useful thing in UML are interaction diagrams. Everything else is a stupid waste of time.
