The Responsibility of Government and the Major Media of Socialization in Stimulating the Interest of Parents and Students in the Arts/Humanities Curriculum

Abstract

The study blames the government and the primary agents of socialisation, the school, the family and the mass media for failing to live up to expectations in this regard. The professionals of these faculties are to blame most because they are yet to make a splash about their professions to the public, in like manners and ways the media professionals have made a splash to the public about their profession such that most parents and students have for long now become deeply interested in Mass Communication, and would readily pay any amount of money for concessional admission into the department and other departments.
