The recent theoretical and technological advancement in computer graphics has brought not only exciting changes to the computing field but also new challenges to computer science educators. One of the challenges is effective teaching of computer graphics to computer science students. Several speakers at the SIGGRAPH "91 educators' program addressed various aspects of this theme (Owen, 1991; Schweitzer, 1991; Clevenger, 1991). A SIGGRAPH '92 panel consisting of representatives from academia and industry exchanged ideas and viewpoints on issues ranging from syllabus to the role of graphics in a computer science curriculum. I had the pleasure of being a member of that panel and this paper is a further elaboration of my brief statement in the conference proceedings (Schaller, 1992, 1993).The Department of Computer Science at Queens College offers computer graphics as an elective at the senior level for undergraduate students. The department also offers computer graphics at the graduate level. Since the majority of our graduate students have had no prior training in computer graphics, the two courses do not constitute a one-year sequence and the following considerations are applicable t
