Philosophy<br />
Why Study Philosophy?<br />
Philosophy can help you hone some very<br />
practical skills. As a philosopher you learn<br />
to distinguish between sound reasoning and<br />
empty rhetoric. Philosophy majors learn how<br />
to communicate clearly both in speech and in<br />
writing. Philosophy helps you to think carefully<br />
about ethical decisions. Collectively, these are<br />
skills that will help you in future graduate and<br />
professional education. They will also help you<br />
to live your life well, and what could be a more<br />
practical skill than that?<br />
Philosophy majors regularly outscore other<br />
majors on standardized tests such as the LSAT<br />
and MCAT, because they do equally well on<br />
