    Faculty Guided Intellectual Development

    “They were a really big deal in my intellectual development and development as a person. As a philosophy major, you get lots and lots of personal attention from multiple faculty members. They’d give me meaningful feedback on what I was doing and call me out when my idea wasn’t developed.”

    Christian Minich, Class of 2012 with a double major in Philosophy and Economics, clinical data analyst at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
