NEH Summer Institute on
Reviving Philosophy as a
Way of Life
"The Institute aims to introduce participants to the distinctive content and teaching assignments surrounding the “philosophy as a way of life” idea, develop rich dialogues with participants about best practices for these assignments, help participants plan their own “way of life” curricula, and build professional relationships that will help to sustain this approach to philosophy going forward."

Philosophy as a Way of Life Project Network

In this way-of-life philosophy course, students grapple with the big questions about how to live and what makes your life meaningful. The course tackles such issues as what justifies your beliefs, whether you should practice a religion, and what sacrifices you should make for others.
