I'm definitely NOT forgetting non-US universities.  I listed the ones 
that I did because (a) Dr. Maaretensz listed Georgia Tech, Yale, and 
MIT in his original article, and I assumed that he was focusing on a 
US context and (b) I wasn't positive (before I saw the postings in 
this thread) who was actually TEACHING with Squeak.  I listed 
universities that have contacted me about teaching with Squeak, so I 
know that they're using it for teaching.  There are others (like 
Stephane's U. Berne and also U. Colorado-Boulder) that are doing 
research and demos with Squeak, but aren't actually teaching it, so 
it's fairly hard to discern.  Perhaps someone from UBA can fill us 
in, but other than the occasional graduate seminar, I thought that 
the Argentine Squeakers were NOT teaching with Squeak (e.g., in 
undergraduate classes).
