Fox) (Note this is a separate message so as not confuse the issues) On the point of CS contribution to a "grsphics" minor, i believe that there are LOTS of things we can contribute: (1) A graphics course (4204) (2) A multi-media course (4624) (3) A graphical system (SWAN) by Shaffer -- that has lots of visualization capabilities (4) Several courses where visualization is important (data structures, scientific programming, etc.) (5) Graphcis to be useful needs HCI -- which i am sure Jack will be willing to contribute! Is this useful? JAN --
