I don't see why they don't just teach C, x86, and Haskell everywhere. If you know the concepts behind these, you can quickly grok any other programming language. Also I never got the whole hype behind OOP. IMHO its self explanatory, nothing you need an entire course on to be effective and understand OOP programs. Memory layout and management, advanced pointer concepts and monads are a slightly different matter.
If I had to teach someone OOP I'd say, OOP is like the real world if it were made of puppets and every puppet could pull another puppets strings, pull a string and a dog barks and wags its tail causing a cat to meow, the key is just not tangling up your strings.
