^ lol i got one this weekend it went somehting like this "so i got this new usb mp3 player... bla bla... it works fine when i hook it up to my comp but when i try to another nothing shows up" sigh....
if this happened to me, i would go nuts for sure. i DO NOT want to spend the next 6 years busing to/from sfu, in fact 5 years is too long imo
I think you're missing the point. The lower level requirements are pretty much identical for major/minor in CMNS and PSYC. I'm planning on majoring in one, minoring in the other, so it's really no time lost as of now. Going into my third semester, first year. With Co-op it looks like I'll be at SFU for a total of 5 years which isn't all that bad.
People always asks me if I want to become a teacher when I told them that I am a history/ humanities double major.
By the way, I would like to apologize to all the computing science major for stereotyping them in the past. There was this one time that I girl asked me if I know how to fix her computer, and I replied that "I am not a computing science major."

well i think this stereotype is justified, after all, we fix our own computers, don't we? That's why people ask us for help
Driving Instructor: "where do you study?" I: "SFU" Driving Instructor: "what are you studying?" I: "Computing Science" Driving Instructor: "so can I call you to fix my computer?"

I think i recall an extremely similar conversation with my driving instructor but I'm not even sure now
Driving Instructor: "where do you study?" I: "SFU" Driving Instructor: "what are you studying?" I: "Computing Science" Driving Instructor: "so can I call you to fix my computer?"
Also, it seems like a lot of compsci/engineering students (and TA's) have a poor grasp of the English language.
Here's another stereotype while we're at it: it's because they're all Asian.

Not necessarily. I just reformat if shit gets too bad. If it's a hardware problem I'll ask a friend NOT in comp sci who actually deals with that sort of shit.
lol, low blow. There's a decent article in the peak this week, about this very topic.
The most annoying stereotype of molecular biology majors is that we are fucking awesome. This is not always true. Sometimes we are also totally sweet. Please bear that in mind.

i don't even need to tell you what major.
Agreed and I always reply with, "No... I study the mathematics of computing, not how to fix a computer, CS is not some A+ certification."
My friend in the same major has a shirt that says, "No, I will not fix your computer."

English
"So you want to teach?"
Computing Science
"Can you fix my computer?"
History
"So you want to teach?"
Communication
"What is communication?"
"So you want to be a radio broadcaster?"
Business
"You are evil."
Criminology
"So you want to be a cop?"
I have to fake laugh.
I tend to assume that business students and criminology students are just working through their 4 years so they can get a good job.
Other arts students actually enjoy or care about their chosen field.
Also, it seems like a lot of compsci/engineering students (and TA's) have a poor grasp of the English language.
Now I'm thinking about majoring in Humanities...
