College: To Engineer or not?

[Cyberguy34000]

I've loved my time in robotics, but I'm getting to the point where I've got to decide if this is really what I want to do with my life. Engineering is a load of fun, but I'm still strongly considering Political Science. Given that Dean's Homework is taking more of a political leaning, I still think I'd be embracing the ideals of FIRST if I went that way. They really aren't all that different, one solves physical problems while the other solves people/political problems, but I'm really having trouble deciding between the two.

My questions for CD are... "Are you a FIRST fanatic that has considered studying something other than engineering? What influenced your decision? Do you have any advice for someone about to make a major decision like this?"

Thanks!
