yeah, most school dont teach even teach linux to
everyone(my faculty only open the course to MIS
student). 

worst not many people care(such my faculty mates, in
faculty in computer science). and most think linux is
hard........

as far as i concern i didnt find alot of people(my
class mate) that is interested in linux. but i do get
some but few people asking question, such as is it
hard to use/install linux? how to compile code(since
we learn c++ here)? some ask you can listen to song?
among other.


it also happens that there is a m$ student programme
that have activities and competition, they have a talk
too last year. the talk is not bad, quite practical,
mostly what can we do, not promoting product. the
point here, maybe some one come out with a OSS
equivelent of this programme.
