Why am I here and what am I supposed to do about it? Allow Patrick McCarty, 35-year Professor of Philosophy and Literature, to guide you through a genuine conversation over the things that still strike you with wonder, whether it is the nature of time, consciousness, love, justice, reality, truth, happiness, friendship or science and technology. Each meeting will begin with a handout and a list of topics and questions, and we are free to have fun with them, explore, discover, learn and bond with each other at the deep levels of connection that sustained attention reveals. We have all been natural philosophers since childhood, so no expertise or formal experience is required. Please join us!
