Thinking about it, ours was a small college -- 2500 students. So there may have been a practical reason for everybody taking the same math courses. They were taught more as "service" courses for the sciences and engineering than as theoretical math courses. And the students who didn't need calculus typically satisfied their math requirement with a statistics course.

Complex analysis and real analysis were among the higher-level courses, attended mostly by math majors, with the proviso that there were a lot of double majors. That was where it got interesting.

The requirements for the physics major were only a handful of math credits shy of the math major.

Usually engineering/math calc and then a much less rigorous business/arts&crafts calc for the rest.
