[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I’m a high school teacher, and have worked at several top independent schools. The kids who intend to major in Business for undergrad are, across the board, less intelligent than kids who choose hard STEM majors. Actually, the (rich, don’t need to make $) kids who choose Art History, English, Classics, or similar also tend to be more intelligent and driven than the Business majors.

To summarize, the smartest kids who need to work for money don’t choose Business, but tend toward STEM. The smartest kids who do not need to work for money also avoid Business, in favour of things like Art History, Classics, English, or similar.

Business is a bro degree. I’m sorry, but it is."

I'm OP, and this person expressed what I feel about it better than I did.[/quote]
All the parents and the so called “smart students” the teacher mentions put their trust and their inherited wealth in the hands of business majors and MBAs.  Lucky for them, their forefathers earned their wealth.  Art history and classics are a big joke.  I would rather respect artists and writers than those who study art history and classics.  What will they do with their degrees?  Work as tour and museum guides?  Oh, the teacher above wrote that such students don’t have to work for their living.  They will waited with bated breadth and count days until they will get their inheritance.[/quote]
