Dr. Byun's computer would not connect to the internet. I proposed to fix it for $10. I intended to show that we the students need to confront the idea of charging to help people. When do people actually pay for help? What should we look forward to learning, that will translate into a secure job doing something that other people cant/dont want to do?

conventional pathway to computer science-
CST231 - computer science 1
Introduction to data structure - computer science 2

Network emphasis or software emphasis
Software emphasis - object oriented software design > algorithm > software engineering

When you build dog house - do you need design?

If your desktop background is visible, if your documents are in one folder, if you show up to class, then you are organized.
