My own undergraduate chemistry degree is one of those. It's a B.S. degree, not liberal arts, but I did have to complete the same Liberal Arts core as everyone else, and it was definitely not trivial (two years of foreign language, fine arts at the 300+ level, etc.). So how would someone like that be classified for the purposes of that particular analysis?

Interesting. No one from my college would be labelled as having a degree in liberal arts. People have a degree in economics or a degree in biochemistry or a degree in English.
