Bachelor level psych degrees also pay worse than most humanities. https://www.hamiltonproject.org/charts/interactive_embed/career_earnings_by_college_major https://www.hamiltonproject.org/charts/interactive_embed/car... My personal take is that humanities departments should be aggressively courting 2nd majors (somewhat egotistical, I was a double major). As much as we might want to believe that the purpose of education is to give person a fuller life, increased earnings potential is an undeniable part of there reason people go to university. Selling a line like “the CS department will teach you how to make money. We’ll help you live the rest of your life” or “engineering got me in on the ground floor. Clarity of thought and speech got me to the top floor” seems like it could open up more demand than trying to go it alone. My N of one experience suggests it might be effective. I thought I was just getting a vanity politics degree on top of my CS degree because I liked it. After 10 years in career I think I refer to lessons and skills learned in those humanities classes as much as the ones in my CS classes.
