LOLOLOLOL! Im in the school of B and this is the first time I have EVER heard anything about a summer reading list. I can't even think of any way you could realistically apply those books to anything you do your first year in the school of business. They need to stop it :lol: Truth be known, a lot of the things that are supposedly "required" for first year students is a bunch of crap. I took the math placement test and STILL signed up for the math class I wanted (wasnt supposed to be in there) and I never took the SAT II writing test. Maybe its just me, but I never took the word MANDATORY serious at HU :wink:

I bought 3 of those 4 books that i saw on the list that were required.......I read Succeeding Against the Odds in like 4 days (that's the only one that's interesting), but the 2nd book I was reading was The Black Manager....OMG that has to be one of the boringest black books I've ever read.....And now that I just found out that we don't have to read em', I'll take the whole semester to read the other books (Only cuz I paid for em ).
