Favorite philosophy course:
I loved Continental Philosophy with Stephen Steinberg because I felt as though the questions we dealt with in the class got to the heart of the phenomenon of human existence and the human experience in a way that cut and dry analytic philosophy sometimes misses.
Favorite non-philosophy course:
The BFS Integrated Studies, specifically the Philosophy and Evolutionary Psychology course, because I got insights into how different disciplines can approach the same question from very different perspectives, and when combined can deeply enhance one another.
