Our team just returned from the national competition in San Antonio and placed 13th out of 32 teams. That is a stunning result for our first time competing at nationals! Congratulations are due to Jedd Cox, Mathias Fuelling, Ben Harman, Cameron Hunter, Justin Jerez, Erika Lamborn, Justin Solum, and to Professor Erica Holberg who led this team!
Philosophy majors are encouraged to apply for the Brett E. Blanch Memorial Scholarship. Application forms can be picked up in Main 204. (Please ignore the posted deadline; we will continue to accept applications through March 18th.) To be eligible, you must be a major, have at least nine upper-division credits in Philosophy, and have a 3.5 gpa in the major. Also, since our faculty is so small, we have dispensed with the requirement of having letters of recommendation from your professors. Instead, we will just put our heads together and talk about you!
