                 for entrance into most scientific professions --- a
                 filter through which many female students do not pass
                 and one which may also be screening out members of
                 ethnic minorities. Changes in the mathematics
                 pre-requisites for computer science courses form a
                 major difference between Curriculum 78, the
                 recommendations of the ACM Committee on Curriculum for
                 the undergraduate program in computer sciences, and its
                 predecessor, Curriculum 68. Two questions deserve
                 careful consideration in light of changes in secondary
                 preparation, increasing demand for computer science
                 graduates, and a new focus on educating women and
                 minorities: (1) Will Curriculum 78 bring about
                 significant changes in the student profile of those who
                 graduate in computer science? (2) Will changes in
                 mathematics requirements lead to the opening of new
                 opportunities for certain groups of students?",
