Electronic Discussion
Peter Suber, Philosophy Department, Earlham College

I plan to set up an electronic discussion forum for this course to supplement what we do in class. This will take the form of an email subscription list. Once I have all your names and email addresses, I will subscribe you myself. You'll receive a piece of email from the software that runs the list confirming that you have been subscribed. Once you receive that email, you have been "activated" and can start to post messages.
