I can't say enough how much I wish my school would have tought some form of version control. I am graduating this winter, and out of all my classes, I've only been taught version control in one class; and that was covered in one lecture.
I am using SVN at work, and use git (on GitHub) for my side project. I wish my school would teach git because it seems so confusing to me.
I agree that they should mention it and maybe even use some sort of version control for assignments, I see no reason to teach it.
I graduated years ago before git even existed as did many others. We all managed to learn git. This is the nature of computing. Things change quickly and sometimes radically. The sooner you learn to learn on your own the better.
