In 2018 - this is so bad that it deserves some kind of disciplinary measure from administration.
This is absolutely unacceptable for students needing different accessibility enabled tools other than vi /vim.
For example, if using an alternative screenreader or a vocally/sound enabled ide or if needing to interact with a text editor via a brail enabled tool that doesn't work with vi, does the student just get failed out? That's a lawsuit waiting to happen.

...This is a bit of an overreaction. I think it's safe to say that the professor won't fail any blind students simply on the basis of being unable to use Vim.
