In the 1970s programing was still an exotic thing. Some people just hated it. The teacher tried to explain but the guy was too rigid. He was a math major and he said he took the programming class as an elective so he dropped it.

Dropped a computer programming elective in the 70’s? Wise move...

I was dragged kicking and screaming into a Fortran course in my Physics major- and 25 years later I am senior systems analyst

Thus giving central_va a comparative advantage in the employment arena?
