I don't think the problem with OOP is that it's antiquated, but rather that it leads to spaghetti/difficult to maintain code because things get so tied up in encapsulation or not properly encapsulated that you end up with a bad java framework in the extreme case. But CMU is replacing it with functional programming, which has been around longer (and has recently gotten more trendy).
This also serves as a differentiator for CMU: they're not just churning out Java developers like some universities.
