The tight ergonomics of the "no coding required" math classes, the education economy that makes coding "elective" (for the privileged few), is a source of major inequity.
If you're a CS student, you likely have your own laptop. Otherwise go buy a TI graphing calculator and join your classmates in "cattle car" -- the new back of the bus.
