I only learned Java at college too. I had only one web dev intro course and that was it.

Ahh I'm highly considering going back to college and this scares me. Just the fact the person above you mentioned Jquery gives me shivers. I know a good bit of C#/.NET but once I discovered Javascript I've used it for almost everything.

Anyway, I quit my job as a web developer to go back to college and start a new degree, that degree of course being Computer Science. I'm doing this because I figured it would lead to me becoming a better developer, but sometimes with all the things I read about college, I'm not so sure...

Input anyone??

Colleges or university won't make u a better developer, you need to learn it your self and really practice hard, universities gives unnecessary work lost but I guess the certificate is important
