Attention--Blackboard

The next outside reading has been posted. Identity is the topic for next week. Also, VanMetre has talked to me about using blackboard for discussion boards. Get acquainted with your blackboard account in order to use this feature.

Blink and Ayn Rand

Further the discussion? Be my guest--

First meeting

So, turn-out was, uh..wow.

Any comments on the first meeting?

Our discussions should be like this show:

The views expressed by this blog do not reflect the views of Alfred M. Barbe High School

We cannot affiliate ourselves (as an oustide group) with the school. You are still entitled to messageboard on this blog, but you should not promote visitation of this blog to your fellow Philosophy Club members. It is an outside establishment.

Take 2

I spoke with Dr. VanMetre today, and he told me the club could be a good idea.

One of his main concerns was the large amount of Seniors in a club that would start towards the end of the school year.

He also forwarded the idea of outside readings and discussion.

In the end, the final verdict will have to come from Mrs. Fraser.

We do NEED more Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshman. If you take any classes in a classroom that is occupied by underclassmen at any time of day, please ask your teacher if it's alright to put an ad for the club on her board. Give any info you want, but be sure to link them to this blog (philosophyatbarbe.blogspot.com). Ads around school are also welcome. We need to publicize. 

Thanks for the effort,
