Meanwhile over in the mechanical engineering department, someone is complaining that they have to learn physics when they just wanted to build cool cars.

I took engineering for a year before I realized it had nothing to do with trains.
...then don't study computer science. I study CS and it's annoying when someone in a more math/logic oriented course is like "If I get a job at a tech company I won't need this". All that IS computer science, if you just wanna code, learn to code.
I would have done CS if every math class at my school didn't have 500 people in it. Even college algebra. They basically made everything a weed-out class
I do think many of the CS concepts are pretty cool :)
A few failed exams later you end up programming cyberpunk and since you're so oblivious to algorithms' complexity it becomes a meme not a game.
