As the parent of an accounting major, I get reallly peeved at times by some of you guys. Really, since when did business majors become your whipping boys? It’s all well and good when your kids want to study classics or philosophy, but let your kid choose accounting (and to a lesser extent, engineering) then they must be money-grubbing, or non-intellectual, or boring. Oh, and add non-creative and poor writers. Personally, I think it’s uncreative (and poor writing) to just assume that business majors are automatically and categorically “inferior” to other majors.

Harumph. Rant over. Sorry about that!
