Awk :
Even when I was a STEM major, it gave me the ick how many people in the field made fun of history, literature, arts, AND ETHICS. Like actual interdisciplinary education is so important

I find STEM subjects generally deal with a very rigid way of thinking in comparison with the humanities. Both are necessary for balance.

You are EXACTLY right. I’m an engineer and I see it daily how the lack of empathy/critical thought outside math hinders us.

History professor here, and you are spot on! Students struggle to read, write, and COMPREHEND complex ideas. But that's the point...create a population that obeys and doesn't question authority.

best explanation i ever heard was from a math prof. he said, "mathematics teaches us what we CAN do. liberal arts subjects [i.e. history, sociology, literature, arts] teach us if we SHOULD do it."
