Great vision, but it's really the fault of a horrible trend in the liberal arts. Liberal arts is supposed to be about passing down and building upon wisdom and culture gained over thousands of years. Instead, at most universities, it's an uncriticized and unaccountable platform for instructors' personal agendas. Political agendas are common, but it's more than that: it's about self-promotion and self-aggrandization. And the education is more confusing than enlightening. Vague, unintelligible jumbles of keywords pass for brilliance and depth. I've had really good teachers in liberal arts, and they are amazing. But unfortunately that's the exception rather than the rule. In other words, fix the liberal arts, and then maybe more people will appreciate them.
