Course Grading

Thanks to all of my students for a stimulating semester. I will be posting grades for my courses in a few days. When you retrieve them, please let me know if you think yours might be in error for any reason (a polite inquiry on email is sufficient; save the anger and righteous indignation for economic inequality, patriarchy, and the fossil fuel industry). I wish you all a pleasant and productive summer.

cheers,
Matt

Honors Logic

I am offering an Honors section of PHIL 200 in the fall for the first time, and I want to let people know that it is nothing at all like the logic course we have been offering for several years. I'll be using a different book, a completely different approach, and an accelerated pace (it is an Honors course, after all). This would be a good course for philosophy students, honors students from any discipline, and anyone who wants to score well on the law school entrance exam. Even if you've already taken logic, this will be valuable intellectual training.
