Well, I did say 'some' :) The people with no interest in Humanities will not take humanities anyway. That the interest in humanities is decreasing points directly to the fact that people who actually _like_ humanities are disenchanted with it. That is who my comment is referring to. There is a whole literature in sociology dealing with relationship between humanities and colonialism[1]. But I suppose people downvoting me have really got no interest in humanities :) Apparently, anything that makes it look like it might have a value must be bad. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientalism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientalism
