    They're kind of a big deal ... just ask them

    By Rob Neill

    From the “they needed a study for this?” dept.:  Undergrad biz majors need to get over themselves.

    The Harvard Business Review reports on a recent study that showed business majors scored much higher than psychology students in an index that measured how narcissistic they are. No word on why they decided to compare them to the psych students.

    Far be it from us to pass judgment on the kids. Maybe they’re just preparing for the real world.

    "Our future business leaders appear to be even more self-absorbed and entitled" than other students not in business school, the researchers reported.

    Sounds like our current business leaders.
