I recommend that you start a business serving your fellow college students while in school (or an internet business).

This is how many big shot entrepreneurs got their start. You never know what your little venture might turn into and the experience will be absolutely priceless...worth more than your entire 4 year education in dollars anyway.

Adam, you have to change your avatar, it is so creepy.

I can't tell if you are a magician, a creepy weatherman or a businessman?

If it's the former then take something you love. If you're going to be in school for four years then you should take something you wouldn't mind learning about for the next for years. Rather that than something you think will make you a better entrepreneur.

That's the thing about entrepreneurship, it's limitless. Whether you run your own doctors clinic, an ebay store or sell widgets, you're an entrepreneur. There is no discipline that makes you better suited to it. If you *must* take something business oriented, take Marketing. Understanding marketing is pivotal to your success in the entrepreneurial world.

haha you metioned "widgets" I love it when people say that term because a widget is one single unit of any product. I think a door stop would be more properly named a "widget"
