Where has the summer gone? It’s already back-to-school time, and my son heads back to college in a few weeks.
But there’s one change. His dabbling in the computer science field is over.
He tells me he’s done studying computer code, and sticking with his love for words — literature.
Why not? He’s survived a semester reading Chaucer, Milton and Moby Dick and not only lived to tell about it, he loved it.
His computer science class? Not so much.
I asked him about what happened with his one-time undying interest in computer science. Turns out it has become the hottest major on his campus, and his school actually tries to thin out the dilettantes by making the freshman intro course much tougher.
“The people who did well actually had computer science classes in high school,” my son said.
