brown bag lunch #1, Fall 2013
Everyone is invited to this year's first brown-bag lunch discussion group on Thursday, October 3, 11:45-1:00pm in LT 1506 (the Comp Lit conference room).
Food will not be provided by the department, so feel free to pack your aluminum Superman lunchbox, fill your thermos, and bring goodies to trade for dessert because this is going to be a real brown-bag.
The article is by Nicholas Vrousalis entitled "Exploitation, Vulnerability, and Social Domination." (Philosophy and Public Affairs 41, no. 2 (Spring 2013): 131-157.)

SPEL Workshop on THU
"How to Get a Job in Philosophy"
This is a reminder about the first workshop which will take place Thu at 11:45 in the seminar room. All first and second year students as well as job market candidates are required to attend. That said, the seminar should be of interest to all students considering going on the market in the next year or two (and those who just want to know what to look forward to) as it focuses on things you can do to secure a good job in philosophy.
