Philosophy Department

Body

Providing space for students to grapple with the fundamental questions of existence.

Our rigorous program seeks to cultivate truth-seekers and difference-makers, grounding our students in the essential topics, thinkers, and movements of philosophy. The Lasallian roots of the College are reflected in our small interactive classes, attention to individual student needs, and a commitment to the pursuit of wisdom. A degree in Philosophy is a personal journey as much as it is a professional one, and our devoted faculty members are here to guide you through and encourage you to pursue your unique philosophical and academic interests.
