* Discussion of philosophy for first CIS course for majors; pros and cons
  of three alternatives:
  (1) "Breadth" approach [e.g., Denning committee suggestions]
  (2) "Procedural epistemology (a.k.a. Abelson/Sussman)" approach [Scheme]
  (3) "First-of-sequence" approach [e.g., current CIS curriculum and
      proposal for software spine changes now under consideration]

        detailed discussion of the proposed software spine changes.  If you
        have comments and cannot attend the meeting, please send your remarks
