  2. Backup Questions

  3. Why? • What’s driving your changes? • Global competitiveness? • Nature of the field? • Decline in enrollment? • Concern over diversity? • Preparation for changing workplace or graduate school?

  4. Is undergrad CS dying? • Is there a future for undergraduate Computer Science degrees? • Or does the future belong to informatics, robotics, computational media, and other new degrees?

  5. Are we backsliding? • How do you expect your graduates to compare to graduates from 10 years ago?

  6. What is the role for standards? • Do you relate your curricula to ACM/IEEE Computing Curriculum standards? ABET? • Do you teach the same things described by these standards, or are you teaching something else? • Is there a role for standards in today’s curricula?
