Don’t get me wrong, but a lot of college is what you make of it, and if I wanted to slack off, I wouldn’t choose econ–I’m pretty sure you can’t be a college “sportsman” and be taking 400 and 500 level econ classes, and master a foreign language. The other 80-63 hours to fill my graduation requirements I’d take just as many challenging courses, because I want to be prepared for the future. </p>
