[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, friend does not seem to "get" the culture or values of elite LACs. When I read complaints about how there is no business degree offered at a LAC, that's very telling. Tippy top LACs (e.g., AWS) don't offer business or finance or marketing degrees. Instead, students major in economics, and then go onto Wall St or McKinsey. It's a class and culture difference, not one of quality.[/quote] Every college has an economics major. Why not go to one that also offers finance and marketing?[/quote] Because finance and marketing classes are vocational classes. They do not help the student develop the kind of analytical, critical thinking and clear writing skills that e.g. an economics major does.[/quote]
