It's a statement of ignorance. I went to an engineering school, and have engineering degrees, and have no idea of who hires Lit Crit graduates or what criteria they use. While I understand why companies like Pixar might heavily recruit from schools like Carnegie Mellon, I don't know what industry is crying out for the best and brightest Lit Crit graduates. (And the education industry doesn't count, as that's a simple requirement for there being any Lit Crit graduates).
