My secondary degree (from Ume=C3=A5 University and Lule=C3=A5 University of
Technology) is my only degree for which Ada was on the course. It was
lectured in only one subject. That subject had two lecturers, both
lecturing about (parts of) Ada (they did not know all of Ada, not even
with their knowledge combined). The lecture notes were copied from
another university. One of the lecturers asked me about some of the
language which he was to lecture us about soon afterwards, because he
did not know the language well enough to be lecturing on it.

Yours sincerely,
Paul Colin Gloster
