ABOUT
Janus Magazine's primary objective is to confront the growing divide between what C.P. Snow once referred to as the 'culture of art' and the 'culture of science'. Our annual publication strives to bridge the gap between these two cultures in order to better serve students as they choose their direction of study at the higher level. In print and online, we offer critical reflections on the major challenges for students at the transition of high-school and university: i.e. fragmentation, hyper- specialization, and the incongruity of education and vocational training. We believe that while specialization is necessary, it is not synonymous with education. To be truly educated, students must cultivate a love of truth, engage enduring ideas, embrace life-long learning and strive toward meaningful work.

Does ChatGPT’s exponential utility conceal the potential danger of a rapid
decline in human-to- human communication, learning and critical thinking?
EDITION
Janus, the god of transitions, embodies the two basic directions of study at the higher-level. In the arts, students 'look back' in order to preserve the lessons of the past. In the sciences, students 'look forward' to the horizon of cutting-edge research in order to discover groundbreaking innovations.
