Your "evidence" is underwhelming, I don't really understand the point you're trying to make. My argument wasn't based on the "STEM crisis" so debunking it is irrelevant. If you look at figure 1 of your Georgetown link it seems clear that STEM degrees correlate with lower unemployment, liberal arts with higher unemployment.
You don't get to just cherry-pick the easy comparisons. Your link suggests technical educations have, as a whole, lower unemployment. In addition to that, average salaries for recent STEM grads are 25-50% higher than their liberal arts counterparts.
Maybe it's not fair of me to say that one is awesome and the other is horrible, but if we're going to make one of them more like the other it seems clear which one is falling behind.
