I don't think it's clear at all that the natural grouping or division should be "STEM" vs "humanities". I think that mathematics belongs much closer to the humanities, especially philosophy and aesthetics, than to science or engineering.

Most colleges give you a BA for mathematics not a BS, btw (to reinforce your point). Which I think makes sense. Conputer science for some reason usually nets you a BS though, despite not being related to science in the least bit (and almost the same as math).
