Thanks, would love to. But I don't have a fighting chance with that. Pushing SICP through would be an unbelievable feat.
That's a real shame. Bob Harper's philosophy is that the teaching of computer science is more important than the vagaries of one technology industry trend or another. I wish more schools agreed with him.
In their defense, this is EE, not CS. The main thing that matters to them is to get the future engineers proficient in C. When I push for SICP, I claim it will achieve this better than the proposed alternatives, which are all-C and Python-then-C.
Our CS department did use SICP for many years, including when I was a student. Unfortunately they just dumped it, I don't know why. The fact they dumped it makes life even more difficult for me with this...
