Announcements

The department is pleased to announce the second round of awards from the fund established in honor of former UCSB philosophy professor Herb Fingarette by a generous gift from his daughter Ms. Ann Hasse. Surraiya Baloch and Rick Lamb received awards to present their work at conferences at Duke University and Marquette University respectively, and Katherina Gontaryuk received an award for travel to a workshop at Rutgers University. Due to the generosity of the donors, the committee was also able to supplement the first-round awards to Kerang Gao and Daehwi Jeong for their travel to present papers at the American Philosophical Association meetings.

Congratulations to Jon Charry, who has received a Humanities & Social Sciences Research Grant! The grant will support Charry's project examining Sophie Germain's views on the unity of the sciences and the humanities, which he will be conducting in Paris this coming summer.

April 11th is UCSB's Give Day! Consider making a donation to support the philosophy department here.
