I ignore the question and go to the IT and maintenance teams to put a series of blocks, physical and communication-system-based, between the maths and philosophy departments. Attempts to breach containment will be met with deadly force.

Math is the philosophy department in that math is an extension of logic, which is in turn an extension of philosophy. You'd have a better chance of divorcing math from applied math (engineering/physics) than separating math from philosophy.

That sounds an awful lot like someone looking to arrange a containment breach.
