Yeah as I've said many times around here, engineering is effectively a vocational school. My "liberal arts" requirements were so minimal that my high school AP courses placed me out of almost all of them. So in college I ended up only having to take one semester of a "soft science" for some reason, and the options were things like psychology, sociology, philosophy.
I took Sociology and it was great-- easy A and SO many cute coeds. Nothing like my engineering courses. It was a... fruitful... course for me.
But it's about the only non-engineering course I ever took because I placed out of the minimal requirements for literature, history, and I think government.
