  abstract =     "How do we attract and retain women in mathematics and
                 science and specifically in computing? Women drop out
                 of every bend of the pipeline and thus lose the
                 opportunity to seek good, appealing and high-paying
                 jobs. Funded by an eight-semester long National Science
                 Foundation grant$^1$, the University of Wisconsin (UW)
                 Women and Science program aims to reverse this
                 attrition from the sciences at a point where it is most
                 acute: the introductory courses in the undergraduate
                 science curriculum. This paper focusses on one
                 particular innovation in the computing curriculum:
                 extending the content of a traditional first term
                 computer science course in program design and
                 development to include the culture of computing. The
                 paper gives specific examples of computing artifacts
                 and their uses in any computing classroom. It also
                 shows the connection between teaching the culture of
                 computing and the objectives of the Women and Science
                 project.",
