Nah ... humanities is all woke cultural Marxist NS, and it's yet untainted STEM that can see through it, map out the Marxist infiltration and tactics and expose it.

“Yeah, reading William Blake is woke. Just crunch numbers and write code bro.”
LMAO ... Modern humanities focusing on the "Free Love" aspect of William Blake and how it aligns with woke Queer Marxism (aka LGBT).
Great choice. Thanks for making my point. :hangten:
Also ... Here's a Marxist website praising Blake:

Modern humanities also claim Tolkien wrote the perfect marxist fantasy with queer elements, while the author himself was an absolute monarchist and a devout traditional catholic.
Should I not read Lord of The Rings now ?
It's not what you read, it's how you interpret it, or hoe you are taught to interpret it
Marxism is a religion posing as "politics" and "sociolgy" etc... and it's overtaken the humanities and indoctrinating kids into seeing everying through a Marxist lense of criticism, which they call being "awaken to a critical communist conscientiousness" (aka woke) and turning kids into Marxist cult activists.
You can keep that crap out of STEM, thank you.
Fine, don’t listen to me, stay in 2019. Let these wokists have a monopoly on the institutions that generate and maintain your culture, and then keep wondering how they’re gaining ground.
I'm all for learning humanities from a non-woke non-Marxist perspective, but when you say everyone "must learn humanities," they're going to run off to the nearest college, and instead of actually learning humanities, they'll be turn into leftist activists.
I didn’t say you needed credentials or degrees in humanities. But an appreciation.

Download Sir Gawain and The Green Knight and read it.
To me I think age and support is the issue. Kids are vulnerable. Most kids are told they need to make the decision on college at 16-17, idk about you but I was all alone in that decision, and I had 0 appreciation for arts or humanities. Personal life was tough at that age, it was the only thing on my mind, I was just working construction after school to make enough money to get out of the mess I was in. At 18 you have no skills, no support, no money, no one wants to hire you, what do you do? Someone offers you a way out you take it. I was not special, many kids had the same experience. Many drop out and entered the labor force.
I don't think college alone turns kids into Marxists. Not being exposed tough real life problems to occupy your time and being told "this is the way the world works" in a classroom vs experiencing how the world works before going into a classroom.
