that's why you don't major in things you don't have the mind for
Generally, yeah. But some people still do. They look at lists of high-paying majors and try to major in one of them. Or, they figure something like, "I like computers, so I'll be a computer science major!" without doing the proper research into it and then hoping they will be successful outside of school. They could do fine in their classes, but that doesn't mean that they will be able to apply their knowledge outside the classroom. This was part of the point; a business degree is great, but you have to have a certain mind to be really successful with it. I don't see how this doesn't apply to the majority of majors out there.
Anyway, first few days of USC, and it seems like this is how things worked out with laptops:
My business stats and geology classes allow laptops, and my geology teacher even asked people to take out their laptops/phones to update our calendars. Accounting and microeconomics, the most note-heavy and hardest classes, banned laptops. Mostly because of people using them to goof off on Facebook. Damn them.
