Humanities grad students have a _much_ worse deal than STEM ones, typically.
From what I've seen, for STEM, the assumption is that your tuition is covered, you get a stipend that you can actually live on, your medical insurance is covered. For humanities, the working assumption is that none of that is true, and if some of it happens to be true, you're in luck.
Oh, and the humanities degrees often take longer too.
