All faculty in the Philosophy Department are advisors, but some have special areas of expertise listed below. You do not need an appointment to see an advisor in philosophy; instead, check in the department office for their office hours. If your advisor is not teaching during a particular quarter, see any other advisor you want or contact the Directors for suggestions.
