[liberationtech] [cpsr-activists] CPSR Curriculum?

[Doug Schuler]

Good info!

I had been talking to Dick Sclove about this recently and he said that
adding ethics or social responsibility as a class that graduates had to
take was essentially a bad idea. Louis Bucciarelli  apparently was using
this in the engineering department at MIT.

I wonder if this approach is being taken in any other CS departments.
