Although I didn't do CS, but electrical engineering, I would have loved to get some more exposure to functional programming. We got Scheme which everybody hated because of the cumbersome bracket counting.

And of course we got C, Java, Matlab, and VHDL, besides a bunch of assembly. VHDL or Verilog would maybe also a nice eye opener for CS students. It's again another mindset.

Think about how that would have changed if they had a simple text editor with parenthesis highlighting.

[MrQuincle]

Absolutely. Or parenthesis coloring, that would be even better.
