Undergraduate Advising

Beata Stawarska, Director of Undergraduate Studies, serves as the official advisor for all philosophy majors and minors. Normally, one or two graduate students in philosophy assist her.  The advising assistants for the 2011-2012 academic year are Elizabeth Grosz and Aaron Rodriguez.

Advising hours for Winter 2012 Weeks 1-10 are as follows:
 Monday: 2-4pm in 324 PLC with Elizabeth Grosz;
 Tuesday: 11am-1pm in 304 PLC with Aaron Rodriguez;
 Wednesday: 10am-12noon in 304 PLC with Aaron Rodriguez and 2-4pm in 330 PLC with Beata Stawarska.

Advising during academic breaks is by appointment only (send email to the advisor of your choice).

Students should plan to meet with the Director of Undergraduate Studies when first declaring their major or minor in philosophy. They should also plan to meet with an advisor at least once each year to discuss their academic interests, progress, and plans. To avoid delays in graduating, students are expected to meet with an advisor during the spring before they begin their senior year (or at least three terms prior to their expected graduation).

In addition to advising students on program requirements and current course offerings, the Director of Undergraduate Studies also advises students concerning transfer credits in philosophy, philosophy credit for courses taken during study abroad, and preparation for graduate study in philosophy.

Students interested in combining philosophy with pre-law study may meet with Colin Koopman or Naomi Zack, who serve as the department's pre-law advisors.
