Wanted: CEO

Your college major doesn't say everything about you, but it certainly says something. College is your first real chance to choose what you actually want to learn about. So it's interesting to take a look at what, and where, the top business leaders of today chose to study.

Of course, not all of them stayed in school all the way through. Bill Gates left Harvard early to start Microsoft. Steve Jobs of Apple left Reed College after just one semester--long enough for a calligraphy class to spark a fascination with fonts. And media executive Barry Diller dropped out after his first year at UCLA, and famously worked his way up from the mailroom (of the William Morris Agency) straight to the top.

So the message is clear, right? Drop out of school! Well, no. For most of us ordinary people, and for most of even the most extraordinary business leaders as well, college is a first step on the long journey of career and life.

Education is Wealth! If you had this no one can easily fool you and you can't handle riches very well.

Actually, Steve Jobs took the calligraphy class AFTER he dropped out. Reed.edu had -- at the time -- the best calligrapher in the country as a professor, there are still labels all over campus. Everything was meticulously marked. Crazy stuff.
