“Choosing to study philosophy was one of the most important decisions I ever made. After spending four years immersing myself in logic, metaphysics, and ethics and being guided by the dedicated and insightful UM faculty, I feel accomplished to say I scratched the surface of this discipline—a body of knowledge and inquiry that is as broad as it is deep. Reading the work of Plato, Kant, Dworkin, and Rawls, I found that studying philosophy is a great way to develop academic humility, but it is also a wonderful way to learn to think. My reasoning abilities and worldview have been dramatically altered by my studies, in ways that I think have made me a more discerning, inquisitive, and engaged human being. I am better able to question and evaluate the practices and principles I see at play around me, and I feel confident in embarking on a career in law knowing that I can utilize the practical reasoning skills that I learned in the philosophy classroom, while also placing my life and choices in a broader philosophical context.”
