Looking Ahead

For next spring and summer, examine:
• the individualized descriptions of philosophy courses offered next spring
• the special information page for "Ethics From Ancient Rome Onwards"(Phil281/324), to be taught at Loyola's Rome Center for Liberal Arts, July 3-17, 2002

  For the longer term, learn about:

• the Philosophy Major — how to major in philosophy, and why
• the Philosophy Minor — building on your core
• the Ethics Minor — ethics across the curriculum
• the Philosophy Club — socializing philosophically
