As for the authors and other artists without maths at secondary school level; these are professions where talent plays a big role. A degree is not mandatory for being a succesful author or artist; those with talent and application can succeed without. But I still feel that the degree should demonstrate that you're able to use different approaches to thinking and understanding, which should include some philosophical basis, perhaps including religious thinking, and some scientific or logical basis; the arts require empathy and understanding how other people think and feel, so it's important to learn about many different ways of thinking.
