Northeastern held out for a long time, only switching away from Racket, despite the protest of students and professors alike, in the last year or two.
I work closely with Northeastern CS students (via co-op program) and haven't heard anything but negative opinions about Racket.
I've seen more praise than criticism from employers.
I've seen more positive reflection than regrets from students.
(also true of Scheme based 6.001 and CS61A and HtDP)
This discussion at lobsters suggests the decision to change the curricula was political and business driven, not based on the merits of the "Fundies" course series:
