Lisp is one of them.

Fortunately this isn't true. I'm living proof. People go to lisp for various reasons when they are ready, you don't need a university for that. In fact, teaching scheme badly to people who are not ready for it is probably a bad idea, and is the prime reason why some people actively avoid lisp later in their career.
