CRA DEPARTMENT CHAIRS' LUNCHEON AND TOWN MEETING

The CRA Luncheon Program:  A Town Meeting on Computing and Public Policy 
                                     Wednesday, February 17, 1993
                                     12:30 PM to 2:30 PM

    (Tickets for the luncheon are available in the Registration Area at 
    $12.50 per person.)
           
This year, for the first time, the CRA Luncheon Program will take the form
of a Town Meeting on the topic of Computing and Public Policy.  This meeting
will be jointly sponsored by the ACM, the Computing Research Association,
and the Computer Science and Telecommunications Board of the National 
Research Council. They plan to hold, for the first time, a Town Meeting on
Computing and Public Policy.  Leaders of these organizations will report on
recent events and current activities in Washington, with a particular focus
on science research and development policy. The importance of computing as
a central, enabling technology in scientific research and development will
be stressed and key information technology issues requiring special attention
will be suggested. Considerable time will be allotted for audience
interaction.  
    A light lunch fare will be served at the start of the meeting.

THE 4th ANNUAL CSC DEBATE

A Debate on a Recommendation from Computing the Future

Resolved: 
Computer science and engineering should broaden its research horizons by
embracing work on problems from other fields or technology transfer
activities in addition to its core areas.
   
It should regard as scholarship any activity that results in significant new
knowledge and demonstrable intellectual achievement, without regard for 
whether that activity is related to a particular application or whether it
falls into the traditional categories of basic research, applied research,
or development.  Chapter 5 of "Computing the Future" describes appropriate
actions to implement this recommendation.

Arguing for the recommendation: Juris Hartmanis, Cornell University
Arguing against the recommendation: John McCarthy, Stanford University
Additional debators will be announced later.
