The solution should also include making classes more interesting. That's another reason to avoid a class: it sounds boring. And what doesn't sound boring when it's in the context of signing away your time at specific hours every week for half a year and committing yourself to homework assignments and exams? I realize this isn't directly relevant to the trends in sciences vs. humanities, but it may be that when the whole paradigm is so dull people feel more incentivized to just choose the easiest path.
- psyklic 16y agoI suppose so, but frankly humanities classes will always be more interesting than science courses to many people because they relate more to our everyday lives (as ironic as that sounds, since science is all around us). As a science student, I routinely loaded my schedule with humanities courses and hardly had to spend time on them (for the most part). There is no good reason why these courses were so easy in comparison to science courses, in my opinion.
