Congrats to those who received the UNC and Duke acceptances. It seems a few (or is it just one) of our regulars were among the Duke acceptances. Were any of you among the UNC acceptances?
For what it's worth, I have plenty of friends who are financially comfortable (though modest) and happy as can be lecturing in philosophy or gaining tenure at a community college.
Yes! Although, I would put other moral/political philosophers before him if I were to list moral/political philosophers I'm interested in. Funny enough, I'm more interested in Rawls than Kant.
Hm. When did you get the email? I haven't received one yet. That would be an incredible turnaround if they announced decisions already. Their deadline was the 15th.
In the past, the conference was a joint conference hosted by both the North and South Carolina's respective philosophy associations. I wonder what motivated the split. Any ideas?
Stay updated with this forum. If school X posts their application results to their website, sends emails, makes phone calls or whatever, then someone will post about it here.
There's another Rutgers acceptance posted. There are no stats, and so there's no telling whether it's fake. Can anyone claim it?
It's pretty early in the season. I'm skeptical.
