1) If you would like to post on the blog, send me an e-mail so that I may give you posting status. In order to post, you will need to create a Blogger account (if you haven't already done so). The more posts the better. Posts can simply be a link to something interesting and philosophy-related. Alternatively, longer posts - pending approval - could, for example, more thoroughly expand upon a particular topic for the purpose of stimulating discussion on the blog. If posts create substantial interest, we could then examine the topic further during one of our meetings.
2) Take the time to comment on this post with possible ideas for the topic of our first meeting. I will put up a poll during the first week of classes, and whichever topic receives the most votes will be the subject of our first session. Over time, we should be able to generate numerous discussion topics. These votes will be a pretty consistent part of the blog, and participation is key. It is important that we discuss topics that members find interesting. You can always e-mail me at zachary.smith@washburn.edu with topic ideas as well. Eventually I will have a calender placed on the blog front page that will display the schedule and topics for upcoming sessions.
Now, let's brainstorm! Comment away...
