Has anyone ever heard of a class requirement that you run either linux or a certain distribution of linux?

My Computer Science 3 course (which finally is focusing on C++ rather than Java) requires that we develop our programs specifically for Fedora Core 9. The class FINALLY has some computers in the actual classroom (a promise made 2 years ago) and it is our responsibility to install Fedora 9 on the computer. Well that or run the operating system directly from a flash drive, but he said...
