In article <INFO-M2%89112808132280@UCF1VM> you write:

Western Washington University made that change in 1983 or 1984, following
the lead of the University of Washington, who made the change a half-year
earlier.  For questions on how this has worker out, I would recommend contacting
the Computer Science Department here at Western, by telephone or US mail.
I learned under the old Pascal system, but now work exclusively in Modula.
