Pizza Thursday
Every Thursday during community time (11:30am-12:30pm) the Philosophy Department hosts an occasion for informal philosophical discussion over (free!) pizza. This usually takes place in the 4th floor Holland Hall lounge and is open to all interested in philosophy and/or free food. A philosophy faculty member typically hosts the discussion. Please see the department calendar [link to dept calendar] for the most recent information about topics and location.
