If I want a degree in Mechanical Engineering there are certain classes that I have to take. I have no problem with that. As I stated earlier some required classes had absolutely nothing to do with my major. I wouldn't expect an English Literature major to be required to take Calculus so why should I have to take Romance Literature?

Fine. So make that English Literature major take Calculus. They need to know math, but, it doesn't work that way.
I had to take English !, English II and Technical Writing. I had A's in all three. I'm pretty sure that covered my writing education.

The problem is that they are NOT teaching their students how to think, solve problems or expanding their knowledge.
