Think we have worker shortages now. Deny student loans to future teachers , psychologists, social workers , nurses, ect and then see where we’re at.
Teachers, psychologists, social workers, nurses - none of these are Humanities degrees.

STEM degrees are so last year, err... a fad of yesteryear... STEAM is the new fad! Yes, the A in STEAM stands for Arts... The OP's article basically ended with a supporting paragraph of Humanities degrees should deserve equal respect. It's not this one off article, many from last year and older have supported the STEAM methodology. Basically, STEM is great, but STEAM opens more doors...
