<p>As a 30-year veteran of the business world, I still don’t get why anyone would want to study “business” as a primary undergraduate focus. I may be a dinosaur, but very few of the folks I’ve dealt with in my career (except for accountants) studied business as undergraduates. MANY received MBAs, after enjoying their undergraduate years as liberal arts majors, followed by a couple of years in the work force. I firmly believe that a broad-based, liberal arts undergraduate education is the appropriate springboard for a career in business, and for life in general. For those with my views, Columbia is the easy choice.</p>
