Liberal arts grad here. Humanities education has almost completely absolved itself of any responsibility for helping its students build careers.

I did not have a single lecture or discussion with any of my professors about how I could use my degree to get a job, what kind of careers I could pursue, and how to use my degree for anything outside of academia.

Humanities education has become "education for education's sake".

That's fine and all if the cost of tuition is low. But when you're spending $30k/year on tuition, your professors believing that "everyone should just go into academia" is just a bad investment.
