College Advice

Name: Anonymous 2008-01-18 16:11

For those of you who have actually worked in the field, what kind of suggestions or advice could you give to a college freshman going into Computer Science? Things to do in spare time, what's important to learn and what isn't, fields to look into, etc etc, whatever you find relevant.

(P.S. My college teaches C, I've been programming since high school, and I have been reading SICP)

If you do go into software engineering, remember to also do plenty of design etc. courses. Being a code monkey in a megacorporation of today is pretty grim, but being a software designer or particularly an analyst isn't quite as much so. Also the pay will be higher.

Or you could just punt and go for a MBA. That always pays off, long as you can keep snorting the bolivian marching powder.
