I don't think universities should completely remove their liberal arts programs, but they ought to do something to make sure people know what kind of job prospects they're going to have. They shouldn't encourage people to take out enormous loans to get degrees in fields that have limited career potential.
By all means, let people get liberal arts degrees if they want. And certainly keep offering liberal arts classes as part of every degree program. They make for well-rounded graduates in every field. But don't encourage someone to go into tens of thousands of dollars of debt when the best possible degree-related job they can hope for is teaching liberal arts to the next generation of indebted students.
