Philosophy Minor
I think, therefore I am.
The unexamined life is not worth living.
What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence.
Do such quotes arouse your questioning spirit? Are you endlessly intrigued by the puzzles and conundrums offered by life? Are you unsatisfied with the explanations others have given you about these things? Do you like to think them over for yourself?
If so, Philosophy might be the right minor for you.
In Philosophy, you will study how great thinkers of the past have grappled with the most profound questions of human existence while also learning how to refine your own skills of critical reading, writing, and analysis. Philosophy is an excellent preparation for any field in which equal parts of openmindedness and critical thinking are necessary for success, and is a fundamental part of a truly liberal education. No matter what your career plans are, a Philosophy minor truly enhances your life and expands your world.
