I have never taken a programming class in-person. I have always taken it online and just bang out the code and turn it in. However, all the upper division CS classes are interesting and I did attend all those in-person. At that point, you get to hear the professor's stories based on their experiences which is very valuable.

That said, industry is very different from school. There are still things that I am re-discovering from classes and finally understanding after being in industry.
