[Georgette W.]

The reason some blacks don’t major in math, physics, biology, etc., is that blacks aren’t encouraged to major in those subjects. Schools encourage blacks to go to a technical school and/or join the military upon graduation from high school. Blacks have the intelligence to major in the previously stated subjects; we’re just not encouraged to. As far as majoring in business, blacks are encouraged by other blacks to major in business. If blacks open their own businesses, it is believed that we can obtain more power in a domineering society, one in which power is not given to blacks in the same manner that whites are given power. Also, not all blacks major in business. I’m a black woman, I have a degree, and I did not major in business. I am in the fine arts field. When I think about my college friends (I went to a historically black college) from Wilberforce University, none of us majored in business. However, business is one of the strongest and most successful programs at Wilberforce’s campus.
