The Business Major: One of the Weakest Majors Is Now America's Most Popular

This is really too bad.

Business majors (with the possible exceptions of accounting and finance) are notoriously thin gruel. My idea is to eliminate the business major entirely and offer, instead, business minors at most. Universities are not trade schools, and the business major is simply too weak and vocational. It might be a good idea for your average history, lit or philosophy major to pick up some more vocational minor...but a major in business is simply indefensible. Unfortunately at my own school, the business major is so popular that the business school can't offer a minor.
