University of North Dakota used Modula-2 as its language for CompSci starting in Summer 88 (not sure when they switched away from it). I get the feeling some of the decision was because they had a version running on the IBM 370 under CMS. XEDIT was an interesting editor.

I liked it but remember the I/O commands were frustrating as heck. It would be interesting to C-syntax it and see what the reaction is.
