I wish my university had been up-front about that. I did, in fact, teach myself programming - and had been since high school, more or less - but I didn't realize how poorly prepared I was going to be for a career in software engineering after a computer science track. I loved all the "academic" classes, though, and almost minored in math. (Turns out, while I loved them, I wasn't particularly good at them.)
