                 B3 (Discrete Structures) into the undergraduate
                 computer science curriculum, the course has been the
                 subject of continuing controversy. The major
                 difficulties later found in implementing the course
                 were easy to foresee from the most casual reading of
                 its original description in Curriculum '68 [1]. The
                 necessary placement of the course in the sophomore
                 year, the relative sophistication of the intended
                 subject matter, and the lack of sufficient preparation
                 of most beginning students in these areas and in
                 appropriate computer science areas of application, all
                 have contributed to problems in the implementation of
                 the ACM Curriculum Committee recommendations. We will
                 discuss each of these problems in turn, and hope to
                 provide new insights toward achieving a satisfactory
                 solution.",
