I did an odd interactive media course in college - not CS but lots of programming in various languages.
I loved Director and used it for many assignments. Made so many CD-ROMs, even 3d games using Shockwave and models we'd make in 3DS Max.
It was fun graduating and trying to get a job in 2003! Realising CD ROMs were becoming a thing of the past and having to immediately teach myself HTML and Flash.
On reflection it set the tone for the 20+ years of continuous learning and language swapping!
I learned Director (and Authorware) a little in school. But by the time I graduated, Flash was the standout, and I specialized in it for almost a decade.
