The Philosophy Program at McNeese State University
What is the Philosophy Club?
The Philosophy Club meets regularly, and encourages everyone to attend, whether you have a formal or passing interest in philosophy. These discussions can help to tease out issues not covered in class, or serve as a chance for you to learn by doing. Philosophy is not a set of facts to be memorized - it is a method of thinking. The more you "do" philosophy, the better your understanding of the concepts and methods will be. Like your muscles, your brain is toned by practice. Many students find philosophy to be the most difficult field they have ever studied, precisely because it teaches you new ways to think. The Philosophy Club gives you the chance to get your feet wet in an environment that is collegial and casual.
Where: The Mariner Room, upstairs in the New Ranch
When: 3:00 PM every Monday during the academic year.

Never!
Library? What happened to Starbucks?
See you folks again in April?
Lobbying by the Librarians. Damn Lobbyists.
Gimbel! I was just wondering what ever happened with the ethics book you were writing. Has it been published already? Did the publishers finally come around to liking the title "Was it Morally Good for You"?
And by the way, since you've already given us your Einstein lecture you should come back with an M.C. Escher lecture...or some stand-up material.
Starbucks has a horrible reference collection.
Rob,
Alas, the ethics book has yet to find a publisher.
As for stand-up, yeah. I'll be doing a couple sets at the university for the last Banners event and hopefully a set of the more adult material somewhere in town. Frosty Factory seems to have a comedy open mic on Wednesdays. What's the place like?
High class joint.
I've never been, but judging from the name, and considering that it's in Lake Charles, it's gotta be four, five stars.
Hanno is obviously using a definition of "high class" with which the rest of the world is woefully unfamiliar. Or he's making some sort of attempt at witticism. It's hard to tell with him.
Their beer selection isn't impressive. It's not necessarily bad. Just not very good.
So, you know, "philosophy". And stuff.
