 I can think of two such compilers that are suitable for academic use:

1. MacMETH from ETH Zeurich.  It might still be available from Modula Corp
   at (801) 224-8999 for around $100.  It works on floppies.

2. A public domain MacLogimo Plus from Project Modula, P.O. Box 2137, Provo,
   Utah 84603.  $20 for five floppies sent by first class mail.  If there
  is enough interest, I might be able to find an anonymous FTP site willing
  to distribute it.  Since it is public domain, it is ideal for classroom use.

Hope that helps,

++Tim
