It is the job of the professors to create students that master the machines, not be slaves to them. We must raise a generation that creates worthy successors of systems like UNIX, X11, Emacs - instead of not mere derivatives.
Having said that I concur it's true what you say, there isn't somewhere to go at many universities even if students are interested - the command line hasn't got much of a place in modern curricula - but recognizing that we must fight it (employers talking to deans helps a lot! Universities are more customer-oriented than ever in history).
