Computer Graphics was also a lot of fun! It's amazing how satisfying it is when you've wrestled with your twenty lines of GLSL for hours and then you're finally like, "Holy shit! My teapot is reflective now!!" Definitely gave me a newfound appreciation for people who work with graphics down at that level. I only learned the basics, but it's definitely a topic I'd be interested in learning more about at some point.
