So what?

You can divide college degree programs into two categories: thosethat require calculus and those that don’t.

If calculus wasn’t a requirement for your degree, then odds are it wasn’t worth shinola.

The lone exception may be a business degree (which requires accounting), but other than that, I can’t think of a single worthwhile degree program that doesn’t require at least basic calculus.

Never had calculus. Did have Analysis.

Solution: Substitute Calculus with Algebraic K-Theory. No integral signs, derivatives, epsilons or deltas. At least for the first year.

Wayne State doesn’t want calculus but they are clearly learning how to divide.

[Do the math]

I teach business calculus, which typically has about a 60% failure rate. The quantitative business analysis (qba) course has a calculus prerequisite, and it is a rigorous course. I try to prepare my students for that qba course.

Business degrees also require stats, which usually separates the wheat from the chaff if accounting hasn’t already done so.
