I'm somewhat confused by the observation that the first choice for CS majors is to be an entrepreneur. Shouldn't the motivation for CS be either theory (academics) or practice (build stuff), but not "starting a business"?
Being an entrepreneur is something that is either your primary ambition, in which case you don't start studying CS, or something that grows out of the ambition to use your skills and knowledge to make something happen.
Studying CS with the ambition to become an entrepreneur seems like it's based on the notion that "that's were the easy money is". In my experience, those kind of people aren't good at either being a maker or an entrepreneur.
