Hey, all,

I read a few of the threads for "Where did you get
your feet wet" and noticed that most TWers had
experience in some sort of technical or scientific
fields.

I am a senior studying tech writing in New York, and
my program is a spinoff of the liberal arts program at
the school. The only scientific course I really have
to take is chemistry. I've avoided the required C++
course.

I've taken mostly writng courses, and a few graphic
design courses, a usability course and others from the
required courses list. If I'm looking for a career in
TWing, am I at a disadvantage if I don't have a
footing in science/engineering/technology?

Thanks,
Anthony Hernandez
