Your Education
I dont think we ever had such thread.
I have roughly half of a Comp Sci degree, and i'm not going to finish it. Comp Sci sucks. It took me too much to realize that. I will probably go learning next year for some Physics related B.Sc, maybe a double one, assuming I pass all the Army exams.
Edit : I hope there is no rule against more than 2 threads in a day.  If there is, please dont close it, I forgot.

Just for interests sake what university gives a science degree for journalism? An arts degree in journalism seems more reasonable.

Currently working on my BS in computer science and biology. I could graduate w/ my comp sci degree next semester but I 'm holding back until I finish my biology requirements as well .
And comp sci doesn't suck  .. well most of it doesn't at least. It's just the mathematical and logical theory behind computability of concepts that suck to analyze.

It depends on the courses you take. I took more math, political, history and science-oriented courses than "artsy" courses like art classes, foreign languages, philosophy, religion and whatnot. That's how, in part, I achieved in minor in geography (I was only nine credits or so from having a double major).

Halfway through a CS undergrad degree. Still undecided if I'll stay on for a masters, depends on the jobs I can get when I graduate.
And CS doesn't suck.

I just switched to CS last semester, and I should still be able to make it out in 4 years. CS doesn't suck.

BS in History (the abbreviation always amused me. We History majors do have to know how to BS).

The BS in Comp. Eng./Comp. Sci. only proves you can
learn this stuff, that all you do in computers, figure out
how to, or what happened!!!
Me:
Business, Major in Data Processing
College dipolmas in electrical and electronics
Should have studied massage, major in females in Sweden.
