Department Colloquium Series

In addition to our Ziegler lecture series which has a tradition of featuring internationally recognized philosophers such as Bernard Williams, Alisdair MacIntyre, Stephen Toulmin and Robert Pippin, the Philosophy department promotes the research of its own faculty by hosting an annual colloquium series. Visiting scholars and our own faculty present their ongoing research in an informal evening setting. University faculty, staff and students, and especially our philosophy majors and minors are encouraged to participate.
