[quote=Anonymous]I feel I can offer some perspective on this. I am a graduate of Ivy league undergrad and attended Ivy League business school. My son is attending a top 30 university that has an undergraduate business school. I am encouraging him to double major in business. I get the idea that a business major is kind of anti-intellectual but the overlap with economics is quite high (all the serious prerequisites). There are many business-related classes within economic departments, like accounting and financial theory. I understand the business classes at his school are quite challenging. The job placement of the program is impressive. It's a very competitive program that attracts high achievers and high academic performers. The less professional Ivy league schools do not have undergraduate business programs but many unquestionably elite schools do. It is ridiculous to sneer at them.[/quote]
