Instructors: Alison Peterman
Restrictions: Instructor Permission
Description: This course is designed to introduce students to a variety of philosophical issues and questions, some which have been debated for thousands of years, and others which have started to interest philosophers more recently. We will read, write and talk about questions like, What is a meaningful life? How do we perceive and understand the world around us? Is there a God, and why is there evil in the world? What makes an action good or bad, just or unjust, and is it just a matter of perspective? If we live in a law-governed world, how can we be free? And how does our identity as a person with a certain race, ethnicity, or gender shape our experiences of the world?
