Helpful Non-Biz Courses

Business Week lists five non-biz courses for business majors.

I'd add History and Government courses.

I'd add acting classes, so as to know how to project a certain image to match the message and to be able to interpret someone's image separate from their message. Acting classes are also great in developing one's voice (or, if you're really ambitious, your voicess.

I also agree with your suggestion of history and government and would add at least one geography course. if it is a global economy you can't be launching yourself out there without some basic knowledge of where you're headed.

Darkov,

Brilliant point! We all should take acting classes.

And of course you are correct as well on the geography recommendation. Many of us had geography hammered into us in elementary school but they don't seem to do that as much any more.
