Welcome!
Welcome!
Hello Students!
I'm Will Mittendorf, and I'll be your instructor this semester.
Welcome to the class!
You may be feeling a bit nervous about taking a philosophy class, but, no worries, I'm here to help walk you through the field. The purpose of philosophy is really to do two things: make arguments and clarify concepts.
In this Intro course, we will look at three main branches of philosophy: Ethics, Epistemology, and Metaphysics. Each week we will cover a different thinker and theory. For example, we will study what makes an action right or wrong, whether robots can think, and how you know the world is real (and not a dream!).
By the end of the course you should have a good grasp on the basics of philosophy and be able to discuss and make arguments about various philosophical concepts.
I'm looking forward to working with you!
Sincerely,
Will

Zoom-only means I'm not in my office on campus, but I'm still available to call, text, or zoom. If you want to talk by phone or zoom, start by sending me a text message (951-255-6436). We can then chat on the phone or by text or we can meet face to face via ZOOM. Whatever you prefer.
