I am a graduate student in the humanities, and I have also have a tremendous love and respect for the hard sciences. But I find there is a lot of animosity in academia between people like me and people in physics/biology/chemistry departments. It seems to me that we are wasting a huge amount of time arguing amongst ourselves when in fact most of us share similar academic values (evidence, peer review, research, etc).
What can we do to close the gap between humanities and science departments on university campuses?
