since when did b's become bad?

I just finished my first semester at a four year university as a transfer student, and my grades are as follows:
Intermediate accounting 1: b+
Anthropology: b
Business information tech management: b
Calculus: b-
Finance: b-
At my community college, my cumulative gpa is a 3.75, so I freaked out when I saw a 2.94 this semester. I know employers will see the 2 and not even look past the decimal, they’ll just throw me to the curb.
My university has a 3.25 gpa requirement for their business school, so now I am worried about being kicked out.
But when did b’s become so terrible!!! Do colleges just expect perfection? It’s as if a person is deemed inadequate if they score in the b range… Which is just sad.

Any thoughts??
