Back I just attended the first class of my 3D model rendering course for this Spring (NOVA-Loudoun) and guess what we are using as the main 3D software package? You got it, Carrara :). That is one of the main reasons why I signed up for the course. Unfortunately it is still the CS1.1 version, but at least it is a Carrara suite. I would probably have had to think twice about taking the class if they were teaching it in some other package. I can already tell that it will be somewhat of a review, but I have already picked up a new tip from the first day (actually evening) of class.
I have also read that the NOVA-Alexandria campus also is using Carrara in its 3D courses, so it is slowly seeing the light of day and hopefully will catch on at other colleges and universities.
