When I was in engineering undergrad (1993-97), popular non-scitech reads were: Adams, Pratchett, Vonnegut, LOTR, Catch 22. And I hate to admit it...Ayn Rand (to our credit, mostly hated) Has the list changed much since? What did engineering students in the 00’s and ‘10’s read?

Right around when I went to college was the time that engineering programs started requiring students to own their own laptops. It felt a little excessive and futuristic at the time.

Oddly enough my high school had better computer facilities than college, which had such limited machine availability in the lab, they were reserved mainly for juniors and seniors, and besides CS101 (fortran on a mainframe) my freshman and sophomore years were computer-free
