At my university, our mathematics courses were taught by the Mathematical Sciences Institute in the College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences.

Not disputing your statements about proof methods and use of empirical evidence, just pointing out that the term "science" can and indeed commonly is applied to mathematical disciplines in the academy.

And at my university the philosophy department was in the college of arts and sciences; does that make philosophy science?

(though on a related note, many a science student should pay much more attention to philosophy than they do)
