Hotel and Rest. Management Major and CS Minor?



Hello all. I will be entering the University of Houston soon and
pursuing a Hotel and Ret. Management major. I have always had an
interest in learning programming and computers(have about 3 semesters
of basic C++). I was wondering about taking a CS minor, kind of like
"dessert" along with the main curriculum of my major. I enjoy the
experience of being in a classroom and learning computers and
programming; however, I understand that running a food service
establishment has nothing to do with sitting at a desk and coding all
day. However, I think that being able to write up a program for my own
place one day(think wireless ordering via touch screens at each table,
etc...geeky stuff). I was thinking it would be neat to take a CS/IT
class each semester and get my computer lessons in the traditional
classroom setting, as well as going to my other classes. I can see a
real use for programming and using computers in a "real world" setting,
and not having this sort of thing just limited to coders in cubicles.
Am I just deluded here? I appreciate all comments and opinions. Thanks.
