UPDATE: The time is 5:30 (not 5)

Josh May, a philosophy graduate student from UC-Santa Barbara, will be giving a talk at SUNY Fredonia this Monday called “What in the World is Weakness of Will?” This talk is sponsored by the Fredonia Philosophical Society. Here are the details.

Title: “What in the World is Weakness of Will?”
Date:
October 5, 2009
Time: 5:30PM
Place: The Williams Center S-104

Buffalo’s Experimental Epistemology Research Group is hosting an Xphi Weekend. When we found out about the workshop, some students from the Phil Society and I decided to try and poach Josh May to come deliver the paper he’s delivering at the grad student portion of our workshop. It should be a fun talk. Before he presents his paper, he’s going to say a little bit about what experimental philosophy is.

So if you’re in the Fredonia area, come on out!

    Let me know if you’re ever in the area.
