… no but seriously I hope they’re phasing out the Freshman Immigration class. That’s almost offensive to CS majors to have on the mandatory curriculum. “Since you are in computer science, you probably don’t know how to talk to other people outside of l33t, so we’re going to teach you about life.”



Back in the day when I was a freshman half of my CS friends had to lie about their activities in order to pass the class. Hopefully that number’s gone down in recent years so it would make sense to phase it out. ;)

(I’ll never forget when one of my friends hosted a weekend bagger to get some points. He lost him around 1:00 AM, and we had to hunt all over campus to find him. Turns out his roommate had taken the bagger to the CS lounge where the kid said he’d rather stay than with us!)
