Tomorrow is his last day of class. Is that ASAP enough? :)

Though I agree. One of the most dangerous things about C++ is that most C code will compile with it, giving it the illusion of being just "an addon". A person should approach writing a C++ program very differently then they would approach a C program, or you're missing much of the improvement that C++ provides.
