- I am interested in information on what universities are doing
- for introductory graphics courses on the undergraduate level. For a
- first course, what are your expectations of what students (assuming
- little or no prior graphics experience) should be able to accomplish in
- the course? What prerequisites (languages, theory classes) do you set?
-
- What platforms (workstations, NeXts, PCs, graphics displays) do you
- use? Any particular reason why you chose those platforms (or did you have a
- choice)? What packaged applications, toolkits or libraries do you use?
-
- If there are tools or features you would *like* to use but
- don't, why not? What would you like vendors to provide that you don't
- have now?
-
- I appreciate your taking a minute to respond!
