Colleges/Universities Teaching "Serious Ada" - Help Needed

[news.u.washington.edu!milton.u.washington.edu!mfeldman]

Colleagues:

I am in the final editing stage of a paper scheduled to appear around the
end of the year in Communications of the ACM. The paper is entitled
"Ada Experience in Undergraduate Education." Included in this paper
will be some tables of colleges and universities in which "foundation Ada"
is taught at the undergraduate level. I define "foundation" as "introduced 
in CS1, CS2, or Data Structures, or courses at an equivalent level. I use 
this definition because Ada introduced at this level, in the freshman or
sophomore year, comes in early enough to serve as a foundation
language for many subsequent courses. 

Attached are the institutions of which I am aware. Some of my data comes from
the AdaIC CREASE survey, but some of it comes from informal discussions,
book publishers, etc.

I need your help, both to check the accuracy of my data and to be certain
I'm not missing any. It will be good for the Ada community if this list -
to be published in one of the world's major computing periodicals - is
up-to-date, accurate, and as complete as possible.

If any of this is incorrect, or you are aware of institutions that should
be added to the list, please e-mail or fax me immediately.

Thank you very much for your help!

Mike Feldman
