The Philosophy Club at UVA

Club Description

The Philosophy Club at UVA is the undergraduate philosophy club at UVA. Our mission is to create a community of philosophers, promote philosophy, and help facilitate further engagement between faculty and students in the philosophy department. We seek to create an environment where all interested in philosophy, regardless of prior experience, can meet and explore ideas together. To accomplish this, we hold several meetings every semester in the Philosophy Library. In these meetings, we cover a wide variety of topics that span all branches of philosophy. In addition to this, we hope to promote philosophy to those that may have not otherwise encountered this soul nourishing study. We intend to do this through community outreach within and beyond grounds. Lastly, we hope to involve willing faculty and graduate students form the Corcoran Department of Philosophy to participate in club meetings. This provides a special opportunity to all of those involved to interact with philosophy faculty and graduate students in a forum that is distinct from the classroom.
