I can't decide between:

1. Computer Engineering/Science

or

2. Art  :P

Either way it goes I'm minoring in web design.
If I go with one, I want to work for Square Enix((lawl, lawl)) and if I go with two, then I can be the artsy type and move to Athen, GA or Olympia, WA.
Ohh. and I'm going to march in the band which will put me up one more notch on the Geekiness scale. Specky
CpE for the win

Yeahh...that's probably what I'll end up going with anyway.
I could never see myself as the artsy type. :/
Work with Square Enix and convince them to make a new FF7 game and give me the beta!!!!
ok well I recommend to go with the one you like better. If you like both the same then idk go with the one you're better at. I've always considered art more based on natural skill/talent/desire than anything really. And hey.. who says something you create in a computer isn't art?

I always thought of majoring in art as a last resort if The Comp. Eng. doesn't suit. :/
The two are quite different actually.  Computer Engineering/Science is quite an "exact" subject - heavily mathematical/scientific (or logical) subjects, whereas art (well, IDK what "art" means - just painting type art?  or a more broader definition) is typically more "impression based" (sorry, can't think of the right words ATM).
I'm going to be doing art hopefully at University and after that I want to become a concept artist for the gaming or film industry....
