Not all institutions are moving away from Pascal towards Java as a teaching language. Some, that care about teaching computer science rather than how to use language L, choose languages appropriate for teaching. It is almost always better to use a language that isn't really popular for this purpose.
This is one of the reasons why the University of Glasgow Computing Science department choice Ada back in 1994 as the replacement for Pascal and still uses it today. There were other reasons: language features, availability of compilers for various platforms (gnat helped a lot here!). The same department also uses Haskell, C and Java in teaching but level 1 courses are Ada.
