Ideally, a human being should be well-versed in a wide array of sciences in the modern world. Practically... I've just finished useless courses of Natural Sciences and IT, the former consisting of history of natural sciences (I'm a linguistics major, so to speak) and the latter - of neat tricks about using MS Office. I killed a week of time and a bucketful of neurons writing the final paper for one of those, and lost energy and sanity on the other. If more people like you - well-intended but unaware-of-differences STEM majors - are going to start promoting Maths et al. to my face, I'm gonna be reaching for the knife.
