Grad School Info Session Slides

It was great to see so many current students/prospective grads and faculty at our info session, and we were especially grateful to be joined via Zoom by some recent USU philosophy alumni, who are currently pursuing their doctorates! We had a candid discussion about the challenges and opportunities in academic philosophy, and we want to thank everyone for coming out!
