Wade McDonald, SMU junior, joins a monthlong summer business boot camp to learn marketing, accounting, finance, operations, and law. Taught by professors and local executives, the program targets non business majors hoping to boost corporate job prospects or start ventures. Tuition ranges up to 8000 dollars at top universities with no college credit. Debbie Huddleston notes parents invest in short, pricey courses for children pursuing arts degrees.
