My first language was Scheme.  My second language C.  But that is of no
importance.  As my prof. likes to say, "Teach them the concepts, they'll
pick up any language within a week."  I sort of agree with that belief,
even though I haven't learned Prolog.  But the point is, if the choice of
language is immaterial, then, as a student, I sincerely beg professors
to teach a language that they can support with 1) a good accompanying 
textbook--for example, Scheme has the excellent Abelson & Sussman, 
2) a fast compiler/interpreter (Scheme or Saber C), 3) a good debugger, and 
4) an intelligent editor and otherwise supportive environment--
the trio: GNU Emacs, C, and UNIX comes to mind.

In general, keep the frustration to the minimum.
