Why Computer Science?

I had zero programming experience prior to UNC. While taking 110, I absolutely fell in love with it. CompSci is one big puzzle, and it's crazy to think that once you understand a few basic concepts, they can be combined to create something so beautifully complex. I couldn't resist the opportunity to become a UTA because I want to help other people learn to love Computer Science!
