Saw this interesting article today on my Yahoo mail main page:
U.S. colleges retool programming classes
It's interesting yet depressing that computer science majors are becoming few and far between. It's probably people being drawn into other majors like Biotech and even information systems (that's what I'm trying to earn a bachelors in right now). I can kind of understand. I was considering computer science but I didn't want to program all the time. The technology college I was visiting suggested computer engineering and when I wasn't interested in that (read that as not doing so well in my courses but still interested in working with computers), information systems. Yay databases!
But the robot they're talking about in the article is very neat. I wouldn't mind taking a course like that if I wasn't so close to graduating.
