1) A mind-altering form of logic and proof, practiced and developed largely by nerds and geeks, having its origins in prehistory.

Subjects within a modern mathematics degree might include selected topics from;

Number Theory: the analysis of why not all numbers are like the number 1.

Calculus: Differential calculus is the study of how to find the slope of a single point while integral calculus is the study of how to add up infinite quantities of numbers and obtain a single finite number as a result.

Topology: The study of how coffee cups are actually quite similar to doughnuts.

Mathematics as a form of mental kung fu is used extensively in all the sciences and in business and trade, it is at the heart of all technical progress. The average person uses mathematics, for example, to locate bargains in shopping malls by simply looking at a few numerals on a price tag.

Mathematics
An arcane discipline invented by the ancients to ensure full employment among pointy headed professors who lack social skills to enter or succeed in any of the social sciences, including spelling. The principal means by which this is achieved is to establish an extensive, cascading order of complexity, such that each class is offered only as a prerequisite to the next.

Mathematics is the language of tenure. Since university administrators invariably come from more serious disciplines, they could give a rat's what goes on in the math department, excepting, of course the math professors' occasional brush with the FBI and kiddy porn.
