When I was going to school (UCSB, just down the road a ways :-) I'd say
most if not all students were using csh. It was the default shell and
we didn't know any better to change it or even if we wanted to. I took
a class my last year, though, in which we went over sh and compared it
to csh. sh came out on top although it's been a few years since the
class and the last time I used csh so I can't remember the reasons given
(meaning: don't flame me). Students are sheep (usually).
