Humanities students might accept this argument and agree that they

should take some natural science courses, but not as many courses as are now
required. They might suggest a one-semester course in biological science and a
one-semester course in physical science, along with perhaps one semester of
math for non-major. This, they argue, would expose them sufficiently to the
universe of science. If the point of a university education were merely to expose
students to a variety of subjects, then I might agree. But a university education
implies more than mere exposure. After all, people can be exposed to subjects by
watching television. Again, the purpose of going to a university is to get an
education. What does that mean? According to Elizabeth Marshall of MMU Cyber
It means more than just training and exposure; it means that students learn
enough to become critical thinkers in the various disciplines. It means that they
should gain enough understanding of the sciences, humanities, social sciences,
and the arts to be able to discuss issues in these areas intelligently and to be
able to question other peoples views rather than just accept what people tell
them. (Marshall, 2014)
