Thanks Lorraine. I found this one challenging to hit publish on because I kept thinking "oh this too!" I think communication skills and non-violent communication in particular would be good to add to this list. Rosenberg has been on my list for a while and is another one that should be added here!
This is again a thoughtful post by @Josh Brake! As a PhD student, I enjoyed reading how Josh as a faculty approaches the same task as I do from the student's perspective.
I have more questions than answers though and would love if you could share your thoughts, Josh:
- How do we help students learn the value of philosophy? For me, the connection and the benefits were not obvious for years, despite having interests in the humanities (economics, history).
- Is there a way to compensate that at least some people inclided towards STEM fields did not even want to hear about humanities, horribile dictu, philosophy?
Thought provoking! I like how you mentioned wisdom.
