It's a systems course, so we use a language targeted at writing systems. It used to be C/C++, now it's Rust.

That's nice, at UPB in Bucharest we use for the OS course C and for the distributed systems one Go/Java, though the DS one involves heavy theory/math and less coding but implementations in Go/Java are a big bonus. I don't know where do you teach, but our students would probably be confused by Rust and their time will be spent elsewhere instead of being focused on the actual course content.
