The liberal arts aren't going anywhere.

When I was in university, I think the opportunity cost of spending time on the humanities (what my school called their liberal arts program) was too high. There was a lot I needed to learn and not much time to do it.

Then I graduated and started working and over time I've been able to carve out more time to work on the gaps in my education. A couple times a year when Powerball gets huge, I'll buy a ticket and fantasize about being able to retire and immerse myself completely in that pursuit.
