Humanities education is useful for existing in (and understanding) your society as a well-rounded/informed human. Helps build empathy and knowledge of context. Yeah that's general, but also specific to you. /cheating
But I'll waffle and say I don't think it's always necessary (or possible) to do it in a school. Everyone has a different way of getting knowledge. And if you're feeling your school has a high ratio of bs courses, you may not get what you want. So I'll waffle on you getting a degree in whatever.
As for what degree to get, I'd be thinking about what you want to do after school and what degree/knowledge/personal connections you'd make in the dept would help you get there. Or might even be as simple as: your degree matters little to your future, so humanities is the funnest, or easiest, or maybe the one that will get you the best grades.
