Learning D in Atlanta

[Paul]

What would be the best way to learn this language?  I live in 
Atlanta.  I program and script as needed.  Okay, at this point I 
would classify myself as a hack. But I love writing my own exe 
utilities.  It's just cool, fun, and powerful.  But I have to do 
so much struggling to get one little scripting-style D app done.

Are they teaching D in universities?  Any good online clasees 
that one would recommend?  Should I take a C++ class if I can 
find one?

I have hacked around in C, Python, and VBA as well.
