<p>Those schools (LAC or otherwise) which offer the bare minimum (or less) for a given major may reduce the major requirements to prevent lack of course offerings from delaying graduation. But then the students in that major may be less prepared for post-graduate study or employment where the expectation of what the major contains is greater than what was available to the student at the school with the weak department.</p>
