Hee hee...Gotcha...
I personally think all engineers should take some of the requisite phd courses, the ones that are designed to force them to realize that what they learned in school is defined as the "box", and that paradigm shifts will only occur when they think outside that box..
A good engineer learns well what is taught...a better one understands that what is taught is what is needed to be taught to provide consistency in product (that being EE's)..and the best engineers figure out how to improve what is taught..
But, I really didn't understand your friend's comment...

Can I exhale now??
