As someone who has taken CS50, its approach to computer science is surprisingly fun -- more like an experience than a course. There's course-like structure (lectures, problems, etc), but there's also the 'hype' around it, the fun MMO factor of many people doing it at the same time, etc
It really makes you think about education (what really IS the best way to learn computer science/programming? who should you do it with, and how?), reminiscent of the overall college experience.
IMO universities ought to innovate in terms of format & really explore what tech can do (deliver uniform material, and perhaps personalized material in the age of aI), and how it affects the values of university
