Teaching Arts and Sciences Together

"The difference between Science and the Arts, is not that they are different sides of the same coins even, or even different parts of the same continuum, but rather they are manifestations of the same thing." Mae Jemison, 2002, TED Talk ( Mae Jemison on teaching arts and sciences together)
I never heard someone who expressed better one of my core belief and motif of grief for current behaviors in academia. This was in 2002. Did anything change since then?
