They'll have snow in hell before IBM follows Microsoft's lead on putting 
product and cirriculum in the schools.

Don, 

You would be amazed at the number of universities that are not only 
teaching IBM technology but using it.  Could it be better sure, but you 
better get your shovel out because it's snowing.  If you don't care to 
look you won't find it.  IBM assists in funding accredited schools for 
software and hardware.  All they have to do is ask!  Yes they have to 
agree to teach some things, but then IBM hands them the curriculum.  I 
have seen it and it is excellent.  They don't even have to develop the 
classes.

Just because you don't see it, does not mean its not happening.  After all 
you live in DC, is there a better place to define fantasy?
