In a word: theory. I didn’t take as many of those classes in college as I did social science, so I’m speaking with a little less authority here, but the impression I got is that the framework underpinning creative writing etc. draws heavily on critical theory, which is about as value-loaded as it gets in academia.
The implementation part, of course, isn’t nearly as much so.
