Administrative Information

Welcome to the online document center for Philosophy 100A, Introduction to Philosophy. Here you will find the syllabus, handouts, studyguides, scheduling information, notes and news, some of the readings, and other information for the class. We will try to keep this site up-to-date. However, we make no guarantee that all the relevant material will be here. We encourage students to check this site, but reading this material is no substitute for attending lectures and discussion sections regularly.

We welcome your suggestions and comments, whether you are a student or just a visitor browsing this site. Please e-mail ffeldman@philos.umass.edu (or if your web browser supports e-mail, you can select the above address).

Notes and News

Final grades have been submitted to the Registrar. Emails have been sent out to those who requested grade reports. We are now just trying to tie up some loose ends. Here is a chart showing the distribution of letter grades for this semester: final grades.

Information about how we calculate final grades appears below under "Takeover Day and Grade Calculation".

Some of the documents on this website are left over from last year. As we move through the semester, outdated documents will be replaced by new documents. In most cases you can tell if a document is current simply by checking the date on the document.
