Because of just how many programmersI've interviewed who can't pass FizzBuzz?
I also taught upper level CS and my first assignment was always "You have 10 days. Here is a 10 line program on this sheet of paper. Type it in, check it into source control, and make the automated tests go green. Warning: start today."
1/3 of the class couldn't finish that task and would drop.
