*The existing assignments are generally not fun
*Written exams is a really poor way to evaluate a student's ability to use a Unix system
 
==Concerns with specific topics==
*'''sed''' and '''awk''' may be given too much attention (one of only 4 homework assignments), given their end-user usefulness.
*Perl may not be as useful as it once was, and may not necessarily be the most appropriate scripting language to expose students with no prior Unix knowledge to.
**Python may be more future-proof and is insanely more Object-Oriented-minded
