The latest New York Times Opinionator column features Simon Critchley's op-ed, "What Is a Philosopher?"
Kuddos to Professor Critchley for both reflecting on the nature of time, and referencing Monty Python!

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.

Interesting. I saw this article when it came out but I had forgotten about it. You might be interested in my film, American Philosopher, which raises questions about about the role of the philosopher in American society (among other issues). Interviews with Richard Rorty, Hilary Putnam, and others. You can get to it by clicking on my name above.
