Whither the Humanities: The Ten-Year Trend in College Majors (2019) (forbes.com/sites/michaeltnietzel)

If liberal arts colleges priced their programs sanely, we'd see more people going to college for the humanities. It's sad that they have to continually hire more administration (where all the money is going) and inflate costs.


I think it's the start of one of the major trends of our new era. I predict that universities are going to drop HASS and bring in more trades programs. If that were to happen I wouldn't mind having them receive public funding.
