Incredibly short-sighted decision-making. Dare I say, they should have consulted some *social scientists* on the ramifications of such a decision, and the economic risks (which they value so much) of reduced capabilities in the humanities.

Cutting funding for humanities and social sciences risks stifling the interdisciplinary innovation and critical thinking needed to drive true impact.
