"You know, when I did my first six week introduction to programming course, the highlight of the final day was getting to use the computer"

"Glad you think so. This interview will be conducted under Faraday Cage Rules; this laptop runs Minix 2.0 with full source code and manuals. Here's the Book. You have one hour to complete exercise seven from Tanenbaum chapter 5."

@Unixbigot My first Intro to Programming class ended after the first few weeks because the teacher could not get time on the school district computer to run our FORTRAN programs. (That would have been in '67 or ''68, long before Minix...)
