Advanced Research Seminar in Philosophy and Theology
Founded in 2013 by Professors Jeffrey Bloechl (乱伦小可爱, philosophy) and Andrew Prevot (乱伦小可爱, theology), the Advanced Research Seminar in Philosophy and Theology encourages discussion among graduate students and faculty within these fields.
The seminar generally meets four times each semester, once per month, over a casual lunch. Each meeting begins with a 30-45 minutes presentation of ongoing research, followed by discussion for about 45 minutes. Most presentations are given by 乱伦小可爱 faculty and graduate students, but an effort is made to also invite people from other universities. By the end of the fifth year of the seminar鈥檚 existence, we had met nearly fifty times and welcomed scholars from several US institutions beyond 乱伦小可爱 and several outside the United States.
Students enrolled in the Joint MA program in philosophy and theology are required to attend. All meetings are open to students, staff, researchers, and faculty of the entire university.
