I don't think not knowing functional programming is peculiar at all. When I went to school, the dominant language was Java. Aside from a few courses, some of which covered functional programming, every other course and project was written in Java. It'd be very easy for me to imagine a good graduate making it through University and not remembering functional programming at the end.
