     Perhaps my perceptions from my undergraduate days are a bit clouded
by the fact that the CS department  was in the Engineering School, while
the Architecture School was a seperate entity.  I was always under the
impression that architecture was purely a design function, while civil
engineering dealt with structure, materials, etc......  In other words,
architecture was the art and engineering was the science.
