25 November, 1985 A little while ago, I asked for information about where and how Modula-2 was or was about to be used in academic courses. I didn't get very many responses. However, they are summarized below. I suspect that there are more. If you are currently using Modula-2 in a class, or about to do so, I would appreciate hearing from you. I'll update this summary and repost it if I get ANY additional information. Please send it to me in the following format: (a) institution, (b) course number, name (c) level of course (freshman, soph, junior, senior, grad, etc.), (d) text used, (e) compiler used, (f) hardware configuration, (g) contact person, (h) miscl. ...

Also, next time around, I'll provide fuller bibliographic data on the texts.

19 December, 1985 A little while ago, I asked for information about where and how Modula-2 was or was about to be used in academic courses. I am slowing acccumulating responses. I am pretty sure that there is a lot more activity than this out there. When I get some more, I will again repost. If you are currently using Modula-2 in a class, or are about to do so, I would appreciate hearing from you. I will update and repost this survey as I get additional information.
