Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 2161204, member: 622"] When I stated management, I was referring to the college that encompasses the various degrees not the specific degree of management. The school of management at some places is referred to as the school of business. I fully agree with the easy management course. A basic course generally is an easy grade. My token psych class was so easy that rarely did anyone NOT get an A or B. Further, there are several creative people that have excellent business minds. Steven Spielberg is an excellent example of a creative mind with a head for business. Often, creative people learn the business side via their family/friends or by necessity. Engineers study hard sciences and little in business (in the general engineering courses) and yet they, too, must learn management principals (logistics, finance, etc.). The skills learned in college should be learned to make a person marketable. Being marketable is great way to ensure that students can achieve a good ROI for the tuition (whether paid by parents, loans, etc.) and possibly return something extra to the school and society. Being creative or analytical or any other classification is not mutually exclusive. Most people are far more diverse than their degree, occupation, technical skill or trade. I mean, look at all of us on this site, we all love Syracuse sports and hate Georgetown. Loving Syracuse U. shows we have good taste, solid analytical skills (I am only half joking, seriously, read our sports discussions and compare with most other fan sites - we really do more analysis and debate than the knee-jerk reaction of other fan bases), strong economic principals (even though we don't agree on every point, the debates on here tend towards intellect rather than blind followers adhering to a philosophy), we are diverse and multifaceted. Georgetown, well, the word says enough. Abigail Adams may have said it best when she stated "[I]It is the very dirtiest Hole I ever saw for a place of any trade, or respectability of inhabitants".* [/I]That and their basketball sucks.
