Tell them to take Computers in the Humanities (Chum) 287 and 387. Though it is in Visual Basic, they are pretty decent programming classes. I only took Chum 387 and I thought that it was easier than CS 142.
I took Chum 387 from Jason Dzubak, and he taught me more about design and UML than any of my CS courses. http://chum.byu.edu/pages/course.html Richard Esplin On Thursday 04 November 2004 12:08, Ross Werner wrote: <snip> > Maybe some of you feel that that's how it *should* be--if you can't learn > the material on your own, you don't belong in the CS department--and I > won't argue with you even if I don't necessarily agree with you--but there > are plenty of people in other departments like Soren described who want to > learn a little bit of programming skills.
