USUPhilosophy

I am posting this article on ‘How Soccer is Ruining America’ mainly to irritate a handful of philosophy majors I know that love soccer.  I also always enjoy taking high level culture critique or philosophical jargon and directing it toward petty things (the blog discussion on Heidegger and the gas vs charcoal grill debate remains one of my favorite discussions from this blog).

It finally occurred to me that someone ought to post on this, and that Huenemann wouldn’t do it himself. 

Congratulations to Prof Huenemann, who was recently recognized as ‘College [HASS] Faculty Researcher of the Year’.  There are a lot of really good people here at USU, so it is quite an honor.  You can read a bit about what he has been working on (and I don’t mean his beard, but his research) here.

Charles Lippy (professor of religious studies at U Tennessee Chattanooga) will be giving a talk called ‘Is Christianity Plausible Today? Challenges of the 21st Century’.

Thursday March 5, 3pm, FAV 150.

Brian Leiter, whose webpage probably gets more attention from anglo-american philosophers than any other, hosted this poll. It’s closed now, but it’s interesting to see the results.

Here is a mock Jenny Jones interview with a recovering post-modernist.  I think it is hilarious.
