I feel like undergrads learn C in their first year? Or at least I did (well I already knew it, but had a class that was in C).

I don't think C is the standard anymore. I'm graduating class of 2022 and my college taught Java to freshmen. My friends at different colleges mostly had the same experience, with a few using Python or C++

This definitely varies by university. I had haskell and C on my first year, only had Java on the second.

On my university we learned C++, already with proper strings, vectors, in-house collection library.

About 30 years ago.
