Campus News of Interest to Adult Students, Updated Every Wednesday.

November 5, 2008

Great Conversation

Great ConversationThe Department of Philosophy's next Great Conversation will be this Thursday, Nov. 6th, at 5:00 PM in the Faculty Center with Galen Foresman. There will be a discussion, coffee and Minerva cake.

This edition of the Great Conversation will introduce the basics of deterrence style arguments and the problems they have. The problems with deterrence are numerous, but the simple intuition that punishment deters action remains compelling. This Great Conversation is sponsored by the Philosophy Dept and Phi Sigma Tau and offers an opportunity for students and faculty of all disciplines to join us in philosophical inquiry.
