A term coined by Joel Spolsky to denote universities that teach only one ’easy‘ programming language, most commonly Java as a means to dumb down computer science education to make it more accessible for idiots.
A university that teaches Java is not necessarily a Java school. A Java school is characterized not by the presence of Java on the curriculum, but by the absence of ‘hard’ programming languages such as C or Lisp that help students gain deeper insight into programming.
Graduates of Java schools are at a loss when presented with a problem that is slightly different from one they saw before.

A type of programmer that is typically misunderstood due to the misunderstanding of what the Java language is, people often believe that Java SDK is Java. Due to the ease of using a software development kit, people who program see Java SDK users as half programmers. Java, however, does not encorporate the SDK and you start with bare bones, not even C can make that boast. Furthermore, a Java Programmer is more experianced with object orentation allowing them to excel in true software development.
He is a Java programmer, what a wus
That is JAVA not Suns Java SDK, why don't YOU try using C without "#include"ing the SDK files.
