Me, too. I wouldn’t really be able to function well in this major without it.
Depending on how we define CS, I may already have that. When I hear CS, I immediately think about programming. I don’t like programming. That said:
That sounds like [url=http://www-01.ibm.com/software/analytics/spss/products/statistics/]SPSS[/url], Access, or Excel. I’m not bad at Excel and have a basic proficiency with Access, and we’re learning how to use SPSS in my research methods class right now. All of those programs are great for exactly what you describe. What I hate about CS is writing programs.
If you consider Geographic Information Systems a subset of CS, I have a geography minor aimed strictly at taking GIS classes to build up skill with Arc-GIS.
My opposition to CS requirements might just be me hearing CS and immediately jumping to “They want me to learn to write computer programs!”, and having a rather negative reaction. If, by CS, you mean developing strong skills with existing programs, we don’t have any disagreement, and I do have numerous CS skills.
