A fish out of water. That’s pretty much sums up how I felt recently while looking at universities with my son, Nick. I’m the journalist, a person who made sure to take the long way around classes like physics, calculus and even geometry. On the other hand, Nick is a numbers guy. He likes the science, appreciates the challenge and is bound and determined to take on a career in electrical engineering.
