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.
And then there's me- Tried to major in Civil Engineering back in '67- Just couldn't figure out Calculus- prof called me in to her office, decided I wasn't a screw-off, but just didn't "get it". She said "You're failing the course, but I'll make you a deal. Take the final, do the best you can, and regardless of what you get, I'll give you a D for the semester. 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."
Now words, those I understand. So I ended up going to law school and the rest, as they say, is history.
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.
