While there's truth in that, I doubt it would be easy to come up with an objective list of 'intellectually corrupt disciplines'.
It would be interesting to try. For example, the dropout graph is a related, objective measure. http://paulgraham.com/college.html

data I saw at Purdue showed stronger correlation of drop to class size rather than perceived difficulty or avg grade
