There are not enough kids being exposed to what the different disciplines of engineering

This reminds me of when I was a graduate EE student, teaching some classes. A foreign (Middle Eastern?) student was asking me about alternating current. We finally reached a point where he said “You will never convince me that the ‘hot’ wire is ever more negative than the ‘neutral’ wire.” I finally understood the problem and suggested he think about talking to some faculty in other departments of the Engineering school. I never heard from him again.
