A degree in hacking

The University of Advancing Technology (UAT) in Phoenix, Ariz., is 
marketing its new Network Security program as a way to get a degree in 
hacking. The school is drawing the interest of geeks who use Windows, 
Linux, and Macintosh, according to UAT's IT manager Raymond Todd 
Blackwood, and even a few who want to go to the dark side of network 
security.

Hackerdegree.com's Web page looks like a non-Windows desktop with a few 
terminals open, inviting the curious to learn more about fighting 
"cybercrime," "cybertheft," and even "cyberterrorism."
