“Thanks to the engaged and insightful philosophy faculty at Samford, I learned to approach issues in both work and day-to-day life in a more critical, informed way.
“I still use the philosophical thinking I developed at Samford—whether I’m critiquing musical structures or working through ethical problems. These skills are invaluable.”
