Philosophy/Ethics, B.A.
(click for requirements)
Philosophy has
historically provided the cornerstone of a classical liberal
arts education.
Students who are drawn to the study of philosophy are
individuals who wish to understand the most fundamental truths
about themselves and their relationships to reality.
They seek to build a conceptual framework upon which to
base their thinking.
They are unsatisfied with the various simplistic
"answers" to questions about ultimate reality and
are driven to explore regions, which promise mental
stimulation rather than stagnant certainty.
Philosophy students receive from their discipline an
intensification of their consciousness through an adventure
among ideas.
The
philosophy major generally seeks a career among the
professions, especially law, theology, politics, social work
and college teaching.
The broad background which a philosophy major acquires
meets the demand in both business and government for men and
women who have been exposed, through training in the liberal
arts, to a careful scrutiny of the history of conflicting
ideas, ideals, and world views.
