If someone is majoring in something like that "just because" then chances are no matter what they major in they will be working in starbucks.

If there's just an average student, yes
But if they went to a top school, have a stellar personality, leadership experience, good with people, and are up to speed on pop culture, there are plenty of advertising agencies that will hire them.
Sales positions too.
You don't need a business degree to get into business, unless you're talking about a Finance or Accounting position.
Personally I would rather hire a Greek Philosophy major who busted his ass and was really really enthusiastic about it, rather than someone whose sole reason for majoring in Business was because of job possibilities and because it's a relatively easy major.
