What I recall is that the first course of Modern Algebra (Group Theory)
didn't really use much of anything from Linear Algebra, but the second
course did. Your university may vary...
Basically, there's not much in a math degree curriculum that requires
Linear Algebra to be taught first. I could very well see one that teaches
Modern Algebra first, and it wouldn't be a scandal to me. There are
probably universities that do, somewhere -- at least if they are as
experimental as they are in compsci... some universities teach computer
programming in quite wild ways.
So, what's your point about unveiled mysteries?
