Greetings,
The Philosophers’ Guild, the undergraduate philosophy club on campus, is hosting its first event this Thursday January 27, 2011 about philosophy and philosophers in social life. The event runs from 5:30pm to 7pm in the Sinclaire suite (student center)! We’ll consider and attempt to answer the questions below:
January 27, 2011 topic—Philosophy in Social Life
• Do philosophy students qua philosophers incorporate the value of practicing philosophy into their social considerations or prejudices? How high in a philosopher’s hierarchy of values should the value of philosophical practice place?
• Should philosophers only befriend, date, or marry other philosophers? Can philosophers otherwise be happy or would practicing philosophy in relations to non-philosophers only wreck one’s relationships?
• To what extent should philosophers inject their social lives and social contexts with philosophical thinking, philosophical discourse, or ethical practice?
Thurs Jan 27

Cheers,
