Linux-centric curricula in New England?

[Robert Casey]

I graduated with a CS degree from UMass Lowell in 2004 and, at the time,
the default development platform was a Linux server. The entry level
coursework included introductions to basics Unix development tools (shell
commands, emacs, gcc, gdb, make, etc). I wouldn't go so far as saying
Linux/FOSS was being pushed, but it was certainly not a MS centric
environment. I can only remember a handful of CS courses where a Windows
box was considered preferable (Java courses come to mind).

Of course a lot has changed at UML since then so it may be different today.
