Beginnings
A good philosophy program is one where philosophical discussion spills out of the classroom and into the hallways, dorms, cafeteria, etc. We hope this blog can be a place for that sort of conversational overflow, too. Our philosophy majors are invited to be members; anyone at all is invited to comment!

Of those who turn to philosophy, not merely touching upon it to complete their education and dropping it while still young, but lingering too long in the study of it, the majority become cranks, not to say rascals, and those accounted the finest spirits among them are still rendered useless to society by the pursuit which you commend. And I, on hearing this, said, “Do you think that they are mistaken in saying so?” “I don't know,” said he, “but I would gladly hear your opinion.”
Hell yes I'm a crank.
