A national study says the number of freshmen wanting to major in business is at its lowest level in 35 years. But administrators at two business schools in Wisconsin say theyâ??re bucking that trend.
The Higher Education Research Instituteâ??s annual survey shows 14.4 percent of freshmen want to get a bachelorâ??s in business, compared to just under 17-percent in the previous year. Itâ??s the lowest rate since 1974, when 14-percent wanted a business degree.
