We describe Easel, a simple 3D graphics pipeline implementation targeted toward undergraduate Computer Graphics education. Easel is an interactive system written entirely in Java, which presents unique challenges and opportunities for teaching not only 3D Graphics, but also a well-reasoned approach to software engineering and development. Achieving a reasonable frame rate in addition to correct results requires students to think carefully about performance, ease of implementation and maintainability.
