There is a significant portion of developers ( particular web and app ) and IT staff who never studied computer science in college but instead moved into programming/IT mid career. Most of them probably never heard of or seen assembly code.

However, I would be shocked if anyone who went through a CS program wasn't aware of assembly programming.

CS tends to be algorithms not low level programming. Unlike say robotics or electronics.

Even so, don't most CS departments have an assembly class? Or maybe get introduced to it in a Computer Architecture class?

CS usually includes classes on compilers, at least that's where I learnt some assembly
