Definately agree with this. I bought a 25 dollar bag at office max, Outdoor Products is the brand name. Looks like a regular backpack but has a *padded* compartment for the laptop.
Well to sum up both the negative and positive replies...
Go out and do something. Don't wait for/expect it to come to you. Don't throw things on excuses. Strive to do all things the best you can while searching for what you want to do in life. If you find it, hold on and do it the best you can. If not, keep looking.... "Slide!"
The wireless degree is essentially a EE degree with a hotter specialization on wireless applications. i.e. you still take power, but you deal with small scale voltages, etc. From a learning and administrative standpoint, keeping this program as a specialization of EE (as it always has been, at AU and other schools), makes more sense. Just like with the ECE (EE with computer option). It's easier to get an engineer to program, than a programmer to engineer. Plus, it's better to start broad and specialize on your way in, so you are better equipped to meet any challenge thrown at you. The traditional major may not know every in and out of an area like the specialist does, but will know a little bit about more things. So while the specialist will have no idea of stuff outside his field, the traditional major will have at least that little bit to fall back on and get going quicker.
BUT, If Samuel Ginn comes up and gives you 25 million dollars to make that specialization a full fledged curriculum,.... are you going to say no?
