The bigger issue here is that programming and computer science are related, but not as much as you might think. It's like saying that if your main goal is to be a proficient writer you should study English literature in college. There are lots of kinds of writing and writing is useful in any field, and besides which studying English literature might make you a slightly better writer, but you shouldn't necessarily major in it if that's your goal.
I think it's a real travesty that somehow "programming" got parked under "computer science" and hasn't made its way as a staple into other programs.
