This paper discusses the impact a Distributed Systems course has made to students in the liberal arts undergraduate computer science setting at SUNY Geneseo. Taking the traditional computer science curriculum, a distributed systems course builds on top of existing knowledge, allowing students to venture into a rapidly growing realm of computing and research. The philosophy, history, and some of the projects presented in the course are described.
