  ABSTRACT: Students today are told from the time they are in grade school that only by studying STEM subjects can they hope to expect a successful and meaningful career. Many people today question the value of a Liberal Arts education as outdated and elitist, insisting that students who study the Liberal Arts do not develop the skills necessary for the modern work force. To be fair, many faculty members in STEM subjects have acknowledged the importance of a well-rounded education, but we in the Humanities have our own shortcomings in this discussion. Instead of expecting the STEM subjects to recognize the importance of the Liberal Arts, the Humanities needs to reclaim its historical foundation and end this division. STEM subjects are part of the Humanities.
