It's a political decision. Virtually every administrative decision made these days in the hallowed halls of Academe is a political decision.

Personally, I get overjoyed every time I hear about some silliness in the public schools because I figure that the students enrolled in institutions that offer courses like this silly-ass mickey-mouse of a course are that many fewer people with whom I would ever have to compete for a great job.

The more people who are destroyed by their schooling, the better your own chances! The only caveat is that you yourself have to avoid all such mickey-mouse courses, & instead take courses that teach things like history, science, math, language & literature in traditional, rational ways. Good luck finding them, by the way!
