UWE Philosophy threatened with closure

I’ve visited many departments of philosophy over the years, and one of my favorite has been that of the University of the West of England in Bristol. Readers of this blog may know it best as the academic home of Iain Hamilton Grant.

In fact, there are quite a few fascinating thinkers on the faculty there, and the students seem happy and well-served by the program.

Something is obviously wrong with higher education in the UK these days. We keep seeing ridiculous program closures of this sort.

In any case, you can sign a petition HERE to support the good people at UWE.
