Other majors were default prohibited from taking computer science courses under the guise of a shortage of places in classes. Even when those majors required a computer science course to graduate I went to an institution that did the opposite; seats were reserved for non-cs majors despite a shortage of sections. This resulted in CS undergrads waiting for courses just so they could graduate. It was frustrating because it felt like the department was taking care of outsiders over its own.
