Events and Initiatives
The UTRGV Philosophy Department hosts many one-off events throughout the academic year.
In addition to such events, there are ongoing initiatives like the Ethics Bowl, headed by UTRGV Philosophy lecturer Dr. Michael Jaworski, and the UTRGV Philosophy Clubs, student-led philosophy organizations which hold meetings on the Edinburg and Brownsville campuses.
For more information on these events, please click on the "Ethics Bowl" tab below the "Events" tab on the banner above, as well as the "Philosophy Club" tab on the left sidebar under "Quick Links".
