What is wrong with physics? Lowest number of BS degrees in 40 years, but seems to be leveling off. High percentage of foreign PhD students in many departments. What are some ways out of this situation? A way might be curriculum innovation Physics and Mathematics:They are like two functions that have always been defined on the same domain, nowthey seem to have a greater overlap. How did it happen? How does it work? What will be the result
