112. I've been bitching about that for years now.

I'm in academia and I'm amazed at the number of students--to say nothing of parents--who want college to be a vocational school. Why bother with a 4 year degree if that's the case? I'd like to see undergrad business degrees eliminated, but it's never going to happen because they are such a cash cow. Whatever skill a student might learn in undergrad business courses is not as valuable as a skill they could learn in a philosophy, English, history, biology, or math classroom.
