If I am an engineering major, then the University's job is to make me a good engineer, not teach me humanities.

I believe the university's job is to make you an educated engineer. As such the humanities will be needed.

BTW, IMO no amount of schooling can make you a good engineer. They're born that way. Schooling just gives them the tools they need.

And the same can't be said regarding creative writing? or artistic/musical interpretation?
