Thursday classes

The quiz question today for Introduction to Philosophy is the very famous question you must have in your philosophy class or you will feel cheated: If a tree falls in the forest and there is no body there to hear it does it make a sound? (If you want an interesting answer read the section introducing Berkeley in the text.) By the way, if you found the video of Amy Schumer - weird - notice she won the Emmy for her show just recently and she is today more famous than ever: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/16/arts/television/in-amy-schumer-live-at-the-apollo-tart-words-on-men-women-sex-and-herself.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=mini-moth®ion=top-stories-below&WT.nav=top-stories-below&_r=0 For History of Philosophy I, the quiz question today was who is your favorite Saint? On Tuesday please ask me about my favorite Saint when I was a kid. Hint, he was in the movie Agora!
