Committing 4 years of your life to study various artistic works and social studies is a luxury, and it does have value. Good career prospects are not part of this value proposition.
I wonder how much better-informed current rising freshmen are about career prospects after seeing the fallout of the great recession. I wonder where they get their research for choosing their college majors.

It wasn't long ago that having a degree humanities was sufficient to get an entry level position for a good middle-class job. Now college/university is seen as a necessity, that is no longer sufficient to stand-out career-wise.
