Georgetown Economics vs Lehigh Finance

Hi,
Would you rather graduate from Georgetown College (not undergrad business school) with a degree in Economics, or graduate with Lehigh University with a finance degree? I am interested in banking in NYC after graduation. Georgetown McDonough School of Business is marginally harder to gain acceptance than Georgetown college is. Would a degree in econ from georgetown set me up for networking/job opps like a degree from Lehigh in Finance would?
Thanks!
