Senior Seminar: Statement of Intent
http://seniorseminar-jmc.blogspot.com/2009/02/statement-of-intent.html
Monday, February 16, 2009. The main question I wish to pursue in this seminar is “What is the value of a liberal education? My interest here is quite frankly the result of my own educational experience and the fact that I’m nearing its end. I suppose I’m looking for some affirmation that my educational experience was the best that it could have been, or at least that the various institutions I was enrolled in afforded me the best possibilities for my own intellectual growth. .

Continental Philosophy: Faithful Gadamer
http://continental-jmc.blogspot.com/2009/05/faithful-gadamer.html
Wednesday, May 6, 2009. What I'm having a hard time understanding is how are we capable of infinite dialogue? Obviously, Gadamer can't be speaking individually. Is this a kind of Hegelian interpretation of dialogues in the form of Geist. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). White and Class privilege. Practical application of the theoretical proposals.

Senior Seminar: Cultivating...phronesis? through art
http://seniorseminar-jmc.blogspot.com/2009/02/cultivatingphronesis-through-art.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2009. I read two articles for today. The first was by Patricia Werhane. She focused largely on the way we approach morality inside of systems. Her argument was that solutions focusing just on individuals tend to miss the larger picture.
