Congrats to your son! He'll have two ways to jump- career in the military, or an easy time finding an engineering job in the private sector after his enlistment is up, with those credentials.

But you've got to promise me you'll change to another major that doesn't involve math."
I took the final, was totally lost. Got my exam back, and she was good at her word: "Exam grade F. Course Grade D."

My #2 son did major in Civil Engineering, got through in fine shape, is now Assistant County Engineer in Grant County, Washington. #1 son, the word guy, is editor of the local newspaper.
