(I didn't want to argue that focussing on Humanities is the right thing to do or sufficient, just say that those courses/departments may have partricularly poor statistics that they might want to answer with this)
I imagine it’s more likely an issue with the departments. In my experience the physics and maths departments were the least progressive in the university and at times actively regressive. I recall facing a lot of prejudice for my working class background or having a disability.
