One big thing that's changed since you graduated is that the program is going to Python as its language of choice starting this fall. C will only be taught in one or two classes. IMO this is a mistake but one rationale coming down from the director is that a lot of programs are shifting this way and that it'll be a softer intro to CS for the newbies so there will be less washing out.

I graduated from the OSU Post Bacc program last week.

Yeah I didn't mind learning C and the two operating systems courses were both heavy into Unix and C, which really gave me an idea of what was going on under the hood.

But I would have liked that to have been complimented with more Python or Ruby or something. I ended up learning iOS for my capstone project and went to the startup to build them an app, but also was thrown into needing to understand Ruby and APIs and everything that modern web development depends on. If I had even been slightly exposed to Rails or Django in school that would have been super helpful.
