Many yarns ago I completed a CS minor. I had been coding since early high school so aced the programming courses. The last requirement was 200 level Math dept. "Algebra" or 300 level ECE 'Discrete Math.' Ruined my 4.0 in the minor and to this day I still can't fathom why such a class was a requirement (though CS was in the math dept at the time). As I recall, the emphasis was primarily on graph theory with no applications. Maybe its nice to have for a undergrad CS major but even there I wonder what percentage will go on to actually need/use such material? I suspect it is fairly niche.
