My main reason for getting a minor in CS would be not being blind to software engineering, I think. Chances are if I want to design a product (or more likely a prototype for a product) I can do that with what I know, and even better after I

Okay, thanks. It seems to me, though, that having done good work on side projects would be much more of an advantage than a CS minor, especially if I have something I built to show people. If I minored in CS, people might see, for example,
