Freshman Seminar
  CS 199 CZ


 TOPIC:  The Transformative Power of Computer Science.
    Craig Zilles

 In this seminar, we'll identify, read, and discuss articles
 relating to how computer science has changed our society.  We'll discuss
 topics ranging from how electronic media distribution has changed
 newspapers and record companies to the role that social media played in
 the Egyptian revolution and how networked sensors can provide police
 departments with the precise location of gunshots across a whole city.
 In addition to reading and participation in discussions, students will
 be responsible for writing a written summary of one of the discussions.
