I think I had to use Access in the databases class too back in 2003; they taught SQL but also had a practical project that involved building something in Access.
I could see it as a legitimate use case-- in a real business environment, even in a software-centric organization, you might have a need for light-duty database stuff where the UI is 90% of the value, and Access could give you that while trying to tape together an interface atop SQLite or MySQL is a lot of extra effort.
