Richard Weiss, a visiting assistant professor of computer science at Hampshire College has created a course in computer programming and ethics for students who are non-computer science majors. He uses current controversies, such as computer piracy and security, to attract less technically minded students who learn how to write encryption programs using a computer language called Perl.
