[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you and/or your humanities professor ilk doing about the dearth of humanities majors? Are demands/requests being made to admissions, either by you or your well situated brethren, to accept more students with a demonstrated intent to actually major in your respective fields? Does admissions know it needs to do this without being asked? [/quote] Fiddling about trivialities while the ship sinks! There are marginal efforts, but the sheer force of capitalist pressures to make bank lead people to think that humanities majors lead to sub-optimal earning potentials. (This ignores our board members who lead fortune 100 companies who were humanities majors, or the fact that we place humanities majors into law/med, etc., but I digress). Many institutions are hacking off what vestigial remnants of humanities faculty/programs still exist (parasitically in their view) on the dwindling budgets. [/quote]
