Oh good lord not that statistic again.

Left unstated is what jobs philosophy and art history majors take.

There's more computer scientists working in computer science than there are philosophy or art history majors working in philosophy or art history.

CS majors are working towards employment in a specific sector, and aren't likely to accept anything else very readily.
