                          ACADEMIC MODULA-2 SURVEY
                          ------------------------

1 March 1989

More than two years ago Larry Mazlack conducted a survey of Academic
users of Modula-2 over the network.  To the best of my knowledge he
moved to a different University and stopped updating and distributing
the report.

The Computer Science faculty here at SFSU are just as curious about
how Modula-2 is used at other Universities as they were two years ago.
To help satisfy their request for this type of information this is
a continuation of the "Mazlack" survey.

================================================================================

If you are currently teaching a university level class, or are about to do so,
