Bless your heart. Do you really think that undergrad degrees in those areas are going to help you more than another liberal arts degree would? If anything, businesses, law schools, and other graduate schools would prefer candidates who have something a little different, that sets them apart from everyone else yet prepares them with the same skill set. If you're going to be a real estate agent or a CPA, sure, get specialized degrees in those areas. But do you really think you have to major in some specific thing to go to law school or to go into the business world in general? Hell, you can get into medical school with a liberal arts degree like African-American Studies if you've supplemented it right - and probably sail right over applicants with majors like Biology and Chemistry.
