My point was not to bash ed majors (I grew up surrounded by teachers). My point was that if Canuckguy is using the Canadian model to evaluate different disciplines IN US UNIVERSITIES he is on the wrong track. HE stated how rigorous ED is vs. Arts and Sciences at Canadian U’s and therefore assumed that it was the same in the US. HE stated that undergrad business is more rigorous vs. Arts and Sciences in Canada and therefore assumes it’s the same here.

Other than Wharton, Ross, and a handful of others, that it not the case in the US.

Teaching is a noble profession which attracts both tremendously talented people (thank you, teachers) as well as those who are not.
