Department News & Information

Philosophy Forum
In fall 2004, we begin a series of lectures and events open to all members of the Rider community and to the public.  No tickets are required to attend the events.  The forum is sponsored by the Philosophy Club and Rider University's Delta chapter of Phi Sigma Tau, the philosophy honor society.

The purpose of the forum is to present and discuss philosophical issues, as treated in the field of philosophy as well as in other disciplines.  Presenters are professors of the Philosophy Department and of other departments within the university, Rider students, and speakers from outside of Rider.  All interested members of the Rider community are welcome to suggest future forum activities.

Philosophy Prize
Each year the Philosophy Department offers a Philosophy Prize to the student who has written the best paper in philosophy.
