Instructor: Dominik Berger. This course meets MTWRF 1:15 – 2:45 p.m. in CW 103.

This course has two main goals: (1) to teach you to read, write, and think philosophically, and (2) to introduce you to some of the main topics of contemporary (and historical) philosophy. The topics studied will include: what can we know for certain about the world we live in, what is the meaning of life, and how should we live. This course requires no prior knowledge of philosophy.
