I have no objection to b&w and all it entails but time should be spent on composition and exposure, not mixing chemicals.
Digital, with its instant feedback and dirt cheap cost-per-shot, is the all-time killer photography teaching tool.
Why would educators not see this?
Your actually lucky! The college I went to had just switched over to completely digital the year before and got rid of their darkrooms.
I knew how to use a digital camera and Photo-shop is easy but I wanted to learn the old techniques, but was out of luck. There is something appealing about knowing the old ways. There is no hiding behind computer programs, your either a good photographer or your not.

Digital = point and shoot = not that great
Film = more options = more creativity = greatness
Basically, what I’m trying to say is that digital cameras are point-and-shoot cameras, which don’t allow for creativity. Plus, using film is a great learning tool.

the answer is obvious to trained potographers.
composition is easy, exposure is best learnt by understanding zones as per ansell adams and black and white is the best teacher.
so thats the answer for you: black and white is the best teacher.
is this for discusion or you seriously cant fiquire it out?
as for mixing chemicals it takes only reading the bottle and mixing with water – takes about 30 minutes to do it not an entire course
