Business degrees are many college students' backup plan if their degree of choice is too difficult for them.

It was a running joke at Uni that Engineering was pre-business.

Source: Failed Pre-Business major.

“Look to your left. Look to your right. One of you will graduate with a business degree. One will drop out. And the third will have traded their health and sanity to get bossed around by the first.”

Our freshman class had 24 students planning to enroll with CS as there major.

Of that group 6 graduated with CS and 19 with business degrees. One Student thought it was a joke how easy it was and said "fuck it" and double majored in CS and business.

Your freshman class only had 24 CS majors? How small was your school?
