Education is Euro-centric but the cultural trends are not

I go to college in US and everyday I am faced with the Humanities and Social Sciences departments being highly Euro-centric/white and treating other cultures as optional topics to discuss and teach to students. However, I find it quite ironic considering the fact that most of the trends and lifestyles present in the American society come from other cultures that are not white. Other cultures are used just for profit to the point of exploitation, but are not recognized as 'suitable' for the core curriculum of a history book.
