The Value of Philosophical Discussion

Published: Nov. 18, 2009, midnight

In this show, we discuss the value of philosophical discussion, especially during the "college years" when one is searching for and forming one's identity. Groups like the "Socrates Cafe" and "philosophy clubs" obviously acknowledge the value of philosophical discussion. But what is this value precisely? And do universities offer enough opportunities for it? Join us and special guest Nicholas Cavallo for a discussion about why philosophical discussion matters.
