I don't think that Emacs Lisp in particular is thought anywhere, but Lisp is thought at universities around the world, sometimes as part of courses in "functional programming", where other languages might be included as well, e.g. Haskell and Erlang (perhaps sometimes SML). I did such a course at UU in 2013-02-01 - it was called "Advanced Functional Programming". The Lisp wasn't Elisp tho but CL with the SBCL compiler. And I think it is better to teach CL than Elisp, in all honesty... -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
