Description
Section information text: Fall 2015 Topic: Talking about Being Human. Philosophy 065 is a dialogue-based first year intensive course devoted to good conversations about things that matter. It is linked to the Higgins Humanities School's Fall Symposium Program and meets the Program of Liberal Studies VE requirement. Our topic this Fall is "Human Being - Being Human." People have thought about what it means to be human in a wide variety of ways, and each of these ways has important consequences. We will consider several alternative accounts of what it means to be human the problems to which each gives rise, and how one can cultivate one's own understanding of the matter.
