First year CS student

hi /prog/
I am a first year student and I want to make myself as marketable as possible once I graduate. We started our first class learning to program in Java but I feel like the stuff we learned would be pretty useless elsewhere. so, what language should I try learning on my own now?

I have refused to interview applicants based soley on the fact that their resume lists a CS degree because they either really did learn CS and are useless
You turned them down because of their grades?
