The Daily
Computer science
starts in September
NU inaugurates
new department
The University's newest
academic department will go
into operation this September,
with a six-course curriculum
that will eventually be ex
panded into 22 courses, Ken
neth Smith, academic direc
tor of the Institute of Compu
tational Science, said Tues
day. After receiving official ap
proval from the University's
Board of Regents last August,
Smith said the program un
der the department of com
puter science would be
staffed with a faculty num
bering approximately 20 in
structors. "There's not a single as
pect of modern life that is not
connected with computers,"
Smith said as he anxiously
awaits the implementation of
the courses this fall.
Program languages L
(C.C I), with a lab (CCs 2),
introudction to Digital Com
puting (CCs 61), Computer
Organization (71), Numerical
Methods (01) and an accom
panying lab comprise the in
stitute's initial class sequence.
The Regents professor, of
physics explained that 16 un
dergraduate classes have
been approved by the univer
sity's Course and Duplica-.
tion Committee and six grad-'
uate level courses are now un
der consideration by the
Graduate Council
The graduate level courses
should be approved by t h e
end of the current academic
semester, Smith predicted.
When all 22 courses are
hopefully implemented into
the department's curriculum
within two years, students
will be able to major .ci com
puter science and will be able
to receive a degree of Bache
lor of Science in Computer
Science, he said.
In predicting more than 200
students would register for
the first semester of classes
next fall. Smith said the pro
gram could expand as rapid
ly as did a similar computa
tional department at a Cana
dian University.
He explained that the Uni
versity of Waterloo in Toron
to, Ont, offers classes under
the College of Mathematical
Science, which has an enroll
ment of 1,500 students of an
8000 student body.
"Our department will also
expand rapidly here at t h e
University," he estimated and
added that it could possibly
expand into the University's
largest department enrollment-wise.
Although the majority of
the department's financial
needs have been met by state
funds, he said a proposal is
now before the National Sci
ence Foundation (NSF) in
Washington. The proposed
Nebraskan
grant, sent last August to the
foundation, would provide
1500,000 effective July 1 f o r
comluter equipment.
Smith also explained that he
has received a $40,000 NSF
grant for application of com
puters to tne prooiems in
theoretical physics.
In another attempt to se
cure federal funds, the de
partment's director said he
has applied for a Matching
Fund Grant from the NSF
which would provide one dol
lar for each dollar the Uni
versity spends. The Matching
Grant would be applied to a
$50,000 undergraduate remote
communication system.
Although the program will
not become effective until
this fall. Smith said three of
the department's faculty
members have been incited
to attend the national confer
ence of the Canadian Compu
ter Society in June at Queen's
University in Kingston, Ont.
The Nebraska professors
would emonstrate the re
mote thermal system on the
society's computer.
The academic director said
he hoDed all courses would bp
taught in Fergusen, Stout and
Richards Halls and other
buildings in that immediate
vicinity, since that area is
generally dominated by engi
neering and science students,
ne said.
In a course outline. 128 se
mester hours are required for
graduation with a degree of
Bachelor of Science in Com
puter Sciences with students
required to maintain a 2.5
grade point average in all re
quired courses.
Coincidinff with all students
in the College of Engineering
and Architecture, 24 semes
ter credit hours must be
earned in the humanities and
social sciences. The remain
ins 16 semester hours must
be taken in a cohesive course
seauence approved bv the de
partment, although the stu
dent will be given some free
dom in his choice of these
courses.

Coach Harry Good's
charges can boast that they
have defeated each of their
foes at least once over the
season.
Oklahoma is the only team
to have escaped, and the Hus
kers and Sooners have met
just once, in Soonerland.
The wins over Missouri and
Kansas earlier this spring are
rated as the "big ones" by
the Nebraska club-toters. It
is these wins that Good hopes
will give his team the confi
dence that is so important in
the game of golf.

the balance of last year's
team."
Looking toward the Big
Eight Tournament at Boulder,
Colorado on May 17-18, Good
says, "we'll be battling to
get up higher than our fourth
place finish last year."
In 1967 the Huskers finished
below Oklahoma State, Okla
homa and Colorado. The Big
Red never needs alibis, but
the fact remains that these
other Big Eight schools have
a definite climactic advantage
over the Huskers.
Regarding the tournament
at Boulder, perhaps Good best
sums up the situation, "in
the end, it gets down to how
hot the putter is."
