sell out?
This is interesting.
UW, is of course, my alma mater. Note however that my degree says BMath and not BEng.
I read the Globe article yesterday (no point in linking since it'll be gone in a week) and it didn't say anything about which department was introducing the C# class. But I knew it was E&CE. Buncha shills. It gave me a little thrill of pride to read the (decidedly negative, if diplomatic) CS faculty reaction to a similar proposal from Microsoft. As nice as that thrill was, though, it's kind of sad that the whole school is being tarred with the same brush.
In other news, day one of camping was fun, despite the downpour. Hurray for wienie roast! I still haven't gone canoeing though. That'll be today. Night one was less fun, and I'm having second thoughts about spending the night again. I didn't sleep very well last night and I feel kinda crappy today. We'll see.
