If you look at the Django core developers almost none are CS degrees, on the other hand Journalism, English, and Philosophy are all represented. I'm a CS student, however I don't care about my CS courses really, if you're passionate about programming (and some CS concepts) it's not terribly difficult to go far on your own, OTOH in life you rarely get the opportunity to study things like ethics, bioethics, or War in Afghanistan in an environment that seeks to further debate, discussion, and analysis.
