Friday evening History of Philosophy I
Watching the Name of the Rose, I should have asked you who the "rose" was, and what we might say about the name of the rose? Curious. Thanks everyone for taking the class. You were a wonderful group. Thanks Tom for the pizza!

Thursday classes
These are the last regular classes for the semester. Next week we are on the final schedule and so History of Philosophy II only meets on Thursday (no class on Tuesday) for a double session starting at 7 AM and going to 9:45. This is optional attendance and we are watching and discussing a movie, probably Jurassic World. The quiz question today was a request for your suggestions on how I could improve the class. For Introduction to Philosophy the quiz question is the same and note the final next week is scheduled for Thursday from 10 AM until 12:45. We will also be watching a movie as yet undetermined.

Wednesday Logic Last class except for final
So today's class is the last regular class. Note there is no class on Monday and the Final session is a double class on Wednesday next from 10 until 12:45. Please make sure all your tests including additional problems from either test 2 or test 3 are in before our last session. Quiz question today is how do you think this course has met your expectations? Can I improve it in some way?
Tuesday classes
The quiz for History of Philosophy II this morning was either what movie do you want to watch for the final discussion or what is your favorite quote from Daniel Dennett. I forget which. For Introduction to Philosophy today the quiz question was what is your favorite Quine quote!

History of Philosophy I Friday evening
There were two quiz questions this evening: what is your favorite Thomas Aquinas quote, and what was Natural Law according to Aquinas? Another good question we didn't cover would have been what Aquinas means by a just war....
