[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All these hoity-toity econ majors. The reality is that econ is the easy degree for mediocre/students without any passions to find jobs. That's it. It could've been stats or cs, but those require the scary word-MATH-so, instead, people major in Econ. Any liberal arts college grad has the social skills to get through a finance position. These are all students smart enough to get through the wacky college admissions process and land on top; that's hard to do without persuasive qualities. [/quote]

Tell me more about these mediocre students getting into Williams [/quote]
Sure. They have no passions or real drive beyond the push from their parents. Some of them are recruited and got a massive boost to get into the college. They never actually had to think for themselves, so they need to make the cushy decision of a medium-difficulty major, so they don't need to work much at anything. It's a sellout major for a reason. It's lazy.[/quote]

So the kids who spend enough time playing their sport to get recruited to a NESAC and managed to get near perfect grades? Sounds like a lazy kid to me [/quote]
