Last semester I took this CS course, the teacher spent one week teaching what secure passwords look like.

It's basically what (OP) is ranting about.

My teachers idea of a safe password was something like:

"#Rs03#T!fIcQm&2vO"

16 letters minimum, completely randomized, with symbols, uppercase, lowercase, never use the same letter twice.

It's so secure, even the user can't get in.
