Humanities should require math and science in order for people to graduate. At the minimum Calculus/Stats + a CS class + some kind of science should be the absolute bare minimum.

How many Universities require taking Calculus, from diff to multi variable, for Humanity graduates?

I think even the English majors should be required to take all 3 calculus courses to graduate.
