Can't you just picture it? The business life. Wearing a suit every day, no matter where you may be, ready to sit down, talk about statistics, propose ideas, make deals, and most important, receive dough. I'm starting to really like the sound of this career! Today, it's time to tell of the possiblity of becoming a business major :D
So I've actually been pretty familiar with the business protege, as I took a program over the 2012 Summer named the Greene Scholars Program, in which myself, and many other African-American high school students learned and practice business procedures, marketing, and entreperneuralship! The class was five days long at Devry University up in Fremont, for about six hours a day, and I really learned a lot about persuasion, pitching speeches, advertising, and promoting products. We even got to meet a succesful entreperneur who was featured on CNN with Soledad O'brien for her, and her other collegues success story. I thought it was compelling and somewhat inspirational to see an African American woman, reach success, and actually get some investors for her product(which happened to be an app for Apple and the Android Market). All in all, the class was a great experience, and really gave me a brand new, positive perspective of the business regime.
I'd really like to learn more of the mechanics of a businessman. I'm currently taking statistics and and doing fairly well in the class, and for the 2013 summer, I am taking a program/camp for Law and Business at Stanford Univeristy for a week! I'm extremly amped up for this course, and I know it really could be a deciding factor for me in what I want to major in. As shown in the picture above, people in business rule the world! It's a really good candidate for a major of mine!
