RadioMan:
It does suck to be you.
Seriously, Yes it does get worse, depending just which engineering you're in.
I was mechanical...jeez, did that suck arse.
ThermoI/II, Statics, Machinery I/II,ALGOR,blahblahblah...
But on the bright side, when you're done, you'll be capable of solving just about any problem that comes your way.
Also, the $$$ ain't so bad either.
Stick to it & take as many odd-ball electives that you can (German, Recreation studies,etc) because those classes are where the ladies are.
