JavaScript "is the language of choice for introducing computer science concepts by prestigious universities"!? God help us all.
I see the link to the Stanford course, but I hope it's still in the minority. JS is not a language that I would want to teach to newbies, especially if those newbies are on a path towards a CS degree.
