I love it! So much of the philosophical literature on vision focuses on output states; it's nice to switch gears and discuss what actually goes on within vision. I also really appreciate how clear she is about what the notion of representation is, as well as its role in prominent theories of vision. Honestly, I find her arguments against cognitivism/for EV to be pretty compelling. When I'm done, I might return to Origins of Objectivity. I think I have a clearer understanding of what Burge is up to having read Orlandi.

I removed myself from the Rice WL a few days ago. Now I'm just hoping that lots of people (esp. in mind/cogsci) decline offers from Arizona!

Thanks! I've only seen one acceptance on grad cafe, but then again there's usually only a few.

Everyone here is a bundle of nerves. And, no, I'm not just saying that because I'm a physicalist. Anyway, how I see it, this forum is good for two things: sharing information and commiserating. So, here's to the misery! Good luck, everybody! And - pssst - hit me up if you have any info re: Pitt HPS.

Internets will be internets.

I just spoke with someone at Pitt HPS. She said that notifications (most likely email notifications) should be out in a week or two. Also, the dept. usually aims for an incoming class of 3-5 students.

Thanks a lot, Jac! It's my top choice. I'm dying to hear something.

Hi Jac! Do you have any additional info on Pitt HPS? Thanks!

Gettin' antsy.

On second thought, I think we'll see more. I just ran a few different searches and more appeared for previous years.

Does anyone know whether Pitt HPS is still sending out acceptances?

I am particularly fond of William Lycan's writing style.

Congrats! Was it a personalized or mass email? I'm wondering if I still have a shot.

I'd join.

Hi there!

Did anyone submit a writing sample in moral psychology?

Yeah, I'm currently enrolled in a terminal MA program. I hope to apply to PhD programs next cycle. Anyway, congrats on Arizona!

Does anyone care to share their WS topic? By the way, I posted the same question to WGI (where account-free anonymous posting is permitted).

Has anyone been offered/waitlisted for an assistantship at NIU?

Congrats!

As soon as I finish Burge's Origins of Objectivity, I'm going to start The Opacity of Mind by Peter Carruthers (after Carruthers...I'll probably read the new Kornblith).

Good luck!
