+General Course Information
+==========================
+
+The one-unit CS 195 is meant to serve the needs of students who are here
+to satisfy a requirement.  It is meant to be relatively painless and perhaps
+to spark an interest in the topic.
+
+The three-unit CS H195 is meant to allow small-group discussion with the
+students who are here out of serious interest.  It requires more reading
+and more writing (a term paper) in addition to the extra discussion time.
+The non-honors version meets once per week, Monday 4-5:30, in 306 Soda.
+The honors version has the same lecture, plus an additional meeting Wednesday
+4-5:30, in 373 Soda.
+

+
+READINGS
+--------
+
+There are two course readers, although with a lot of overlap, one for each
+version of the course.  Be sure to get the right reader!  They're at
+Copy Central on Shattuck Square.  FOR THE NON-HONORS (CS 195) STUDENTS,
+ALL ASSIGNED READINGS ARE EITHER IN THE COURSE READER OR ONLINE.  The honors
+version (CS H195) has two textbooks in addition to the reader:
+
+[ES]	Computers, Ethics, and Society (Third Edition)
+	edited by M. David Ermann and Michele S. Shauf.
+	Oxford University Press, 1997, ISBN 0-19-514302-7
+
+[Lud]	High Noon on the Electronic Frontier: Conceptual Issues in Cyberspace
+	edited by Peter Ludlow.  MIT Press, 1996, ISBN 0-262-62103-7
+
+Each week I cull news articles relevant to the course; these will be posted
+in the class bSpace page and are also part of the week's reading assignment.
+You don't have to read every word of every article, but skim them and read
+the interesting ones.
+
+DO THE READING, COME TO CLASS
+-----------------------------
+
+As indicated below, each week has a topic, more or less.  This first week is
+a general overview of the course and the topics.
+
+PLEASE READ THE INDICATED PAPERS BEFORE EACH WEEK'S DISCUSSION.  Most of the
+readings should be easy going, with only a few exceptions.  (I'll try to warn
+you about those in advance.)  But if you don't do the reading, the quality of
+the discussions will suffer.  You are expected to attend class and participate
+in discussions.  ATTENDANCE IS REQUIRED -- THIS WILL BE ENFORCED.
+
+WRITING ASSIGNMENTS
+-------------------
+
+The course is graded P/NP.  In addition to attending all class sessions and
+doing the assigned reading, the requirement for credit includes three
+writing assignments.  In the non-honors section, these will be short (one or
+two page) papers on assigned topics, based on the readings and lectures,
+due Monday of weeks 6 (10/1), 9 (10/22), and 14 (11/26).
+
+In the honors section (194/12), the first two will be the same short papers,
+and the third will be a longer (5-10 page) term paper.  Each honors student
+will pick one topic for more intensive study, leading to a term paper and
+perhaps a presentation to the class.  (Your topic may or may not be the same
+as one of mine.)  Since the term paper is your main written work in this
+course, I want it to be good -- scholarly, honest, articulate, well-organized.
+To this end, you will prepare the term paper in three stages:
+
+	* A one-page proposal (with initial bibliography) due week 5 (9/24).
+	* A first version (your best effort!) due week 10 (10/29).
+	* A revised version due week 13 (11/19).
+
+I'll respond to each of these stages within a week.  THESE ARE FIRM DEADLINES;
+they are chosen to allow time for recovery if what you turn in is not of
+acceptable quality.  (In a typical semester I require post-final versions from
+one or two out of about 25 students.)  Typical papers are 5 to 10 pages, but
+don't pad; quality counts much more than quantity.
+
+ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
+------------------
+
+I have strong opinions on some of these topics, and I believe that the road to
+academic integrity is for me to make my biases clear, rather than to pretend
+not to have opinions.  But it's also my job to be sure that the full range of
+opinion is fairly presented and taken seriously; if, as sometimes happens,
+most of the class agrees with me about some point I'll do my best to argue the
+other side of the question.  The same standards apply to your papers: You
+don't have to agree with me; what you have to do is show that you understand
+and take seriously points of view different from your own, and try to explain
+why your arguments are better than theirs.  (But not every paper is
+necessarily an opinion paper!)
+
+I hope it goes without saying that everything you turn in should be your own
+work, not quoting from anyone else's work without proper attribution.
