  Two items.

You can test out of a class, thereby gaining the credit for it, without 
taking it.

C++ classes.  There isn't one.  You couldn't do enough in just a language
class to fill a semester.  So, you use a specific class to learn C++ while
learning analysis/design/simulation instead.  You can teach someone a language
in about a week.  OO design/analysis takes longer, etc.  Look for interesting
classes and then find out what language they use to teach it.
