That may be true, but “liberal education,” "liberal arts,” or “liberal studies” has/had a different, and more specific, meaning: “those studies which are the proper pursuit of a free man,” and consisted of the sciences of the quadrivium — music, mathematics, geometry and astronomy (or astrology; there wasn’t always much difference): and the three studies of the trivium — grammar, logic and rhetoric. These days it has come to mean "A major you pick in college when you don't know what to do with yourself."
