I'm at Berkeley.

I also had to find Haskell on my own, but I think it worked out reasonably well in the end. The type theory/semantics class did use a bit of OCaml, but it took a while to get to it.

Also, I should add that--largely due to my own preferences--I've taken a disproportionate number of classes that do not really focus on programming at all. The aforementioned type theory/semantics course only had a token amount of programming, and three other CS classes had no programming at all. They were also some of the coolest and most fun. (After all, I can do programming on my well enough; theory is a bit harder.)
