Procrastination

[Alarik Zekaiden]

I'm unfortunately majoring in Computer Science. The CS classes seem sorta scattered and disjointed, what you learn in one part of a class progression doesn't always seem to be useful at all for the next one in the chain. It's kinda frustrating.

The only time I really come into the Natural Science building is to do tech support work, so now that I got laid off, I'll probably not be in there again anytime soon.

I hate to bump an old post, but I'm pretty sure that this year, Western has upped their grad school options to include some science options, medical options (via OHSU satellite campus), and a new IT/Computer science graduate program. It's all pretty new stuff though from I've seen. Here's hoping that their computer science courses get better as you climb the ladder, but somehow, I doubt it.

A number of the regional schools in Oregon are doing this. Some of the programs might even be good.

I notice exactly the opposite in the Bio classes - a lot of them overlap a lot, sometimes so much that the whole series feels a little redundant.

Why are you at Western? I heard UO and PSU have damn fine CS programs, and you seem to be pretty unhappy with the program here.
