I agree completely. The number of future PhDs has nothing at all to do with the original question. The OP was asking about undergraduate programs in economics. Many students that pursue an undergraduate degree in economics have no interest at all in pursuing a PhD. These same students could also be the best and brightest undergraduate economics students!
