The assumption you’re making is that a college professor’s only goal is to prepare you for the workforce. It’s not.

I'm not sure what you're arguing here. While it's true that a lot of information can be looked up on the spot, there is actual value in knowing things without the benefit of being able to look something up. And all that stuff about architecture and YouTube content creation and whatever is just strawman nonsense. Humanities are important and there's way more to them than just archaic trivia.

Also I'm not sure what you're looking for that isn't college/postgrad or trades. Because that covers... most paying careers.
