The famous Monty Python soccer match, between the German Idealists and the Ancient Greeks, is scheduled for a rematch. Details here.

What, you don’t know of this famous match? Shame on you. Once again, here it is:

The Student Research Symposium sponsored by our department is being held tomorrow, from 3:30 to 5:45. Many interesting papers are to be delivered! More details are available in our Department office, Main 204. But I want to specifically mention those of philosophical interest:

Friday, April 23, 3:30 pm, Main 207:

Andrew Barnard, “Schultze Gets the Blues: The Aesthetic Philosophies of Schopenhauer and Plato”
Grayson Weeks, “Ransom Theory and LDS Perspectives”
Jonathan Chambers, “Kantian Legal Positivism: an Oxymoron?”

We have an exceptionally strong cohort of minors and majors in Philosophy right now. We should recognize some of the honors and recognition that have been bestowed upon them. (I’m worried that I am leaving people out; please don’t be shy, and email me if I’ve neglected to mention your recognition or another’s.)

• Jonathan Chambers, Helen B. and Lawrence O. Cannon Award; Student of the Year, Philosophy
• Ben Siler, recipient of the Brett E. Blanch Memorial Award
• Grayson Weeks, valedictorian, College of HASS; HASS Scholar of the Year; Legacy Award

CONGRATULATIONS!
