eb23282:

Why does a college NEED to offer math and physics majors?

It doesn’t. Indeed, it may be more “honest” not to offer the majors than to offer them inadequately, as appeared to be the case for Goucher math and physics just before.

Of course, lower level math and physics courses will remain as service courses for biology majors, pre-meds, etc… (But that may be demoralizing for math and physics faculty, though they may already be demoralized seeing hardly any students interested in those majors.)
