Maybe at your uni.  At ours they teach Ada along with Haskell, to newbies.
Our lecturers are quite fond of it, especially our software development
lecturers.  They seem to like it's separate compilation and the flexibility
of the types allowed in Ada (enumeration, ranges, subtypes, <forget the
name, unconstrained maybe?> arrays).  Sure they teach Java and C, but that's
only in the latter years of the course, and because they want us to be
familiar with as many languages as possible (no problem if your a language
freak, like me).
