University of North Dakota replaced Pascal with Modula-2 for their CompSci classes starting in the Summer 1988 semester. It was taught on their IBM 370. I found Modula-2 to be great for some things, but its I/O was horrible. I don't think that was a function of the 370.
C is really primitive compared to Modula-2's modules. It just feels (and I guess is) hacked instead of a well thought out design.
