  Gustavus Adolphus (one of those small liberal arts colleges) made the
switch two years ago -- I was one of the lab rats.  We had one semester in
Pascal and the second in Mod-2.  A warning follows : we did our first
semester in Turbo Pascal and the second in Logitech Mod-2, and as freshmen
and sophamores the difference in compile time was enough to turn most of
my class off to mod-2 completely.  We worked on old IBM's, and the amount of
time it took to debug was enormous compared to what we were used to (i.e.
2-3 minutes for a compile and link of a medium sized program).  If you make
the switch make sure that you get something FAST so the students don't have the
same reaction we did and learn to hate modula-2.
