Is political science vocational?
It's much serious than bunch of 'liberal arts'
Liberal arts doesn't mean much anyways.
Applied math, physics, CS can be categorized as liberal arts majors.
So can art history. Huge difference though and it's not a serious major.
What are you even talking about? Obviously, these are very different majors, but what makes one less "serious" than another? Certainly, some have more math. And other have more philosophy. Which subject is more serious??
Applied math is much much much much more serious than art history.
DP. But what do you qualify as "serious." I respect it as a serious field, well cause I think Art museums in art culture has importance and relevance to others?
Where does Pure Math fit on the serious scale, or quantitative social sciences?
You can try to argue all you want but everyone knows it.
Knows what? Make clear arguments, use logic like the math majors please!

I've never met a bright student who majors in Criminology. You need to be bright to get into a top law school.

Sounds better than most humanities majors.
This. It’s an excellent major for a lot of professional fields.

No schools that my kids looked at even had those majors. You can go to law school with any major, so students would be more likely to major in what they really like.

Because there are specific colleges for this that are much less expensive. As in, John Jay College of Criminal Justice in NYC. You don't go to Harvard to become a police officer or private investigator and such.
