The Philosophy Course Union presents Thinking towards Action: 2019 Underrepresented Philosophy Conference. This year’s conference bridges disciplines to create an invested dialogue on the state of knowledge in higher learning and ethics in morally precarious times. We encourage students and faculty from all disciplines to attend and engage with our speakers.
The event is free and open to all. Please register.
