| Description: | What is Philosophy about? It’s about the power of ideas — to change people, and to change the world. Thinking, understanding, and asking the big questions. Demanding answers. Challenging common sense and popular opinions. Successful Philosophy students excel in thought, speech and writing. They can move seamlessly between different points of view on an issue; they can anticipate objections to their opinions, and are prepared to disarm them; they can ingest difficult material and turn it into something everyone can understand; they can see deep, interesting and far-reaching connections between ideas. |
