Graduation on the hottest day of the year. Worth it to celebrate the achievements of an exceptional group of @brookes_philos students who produced work that wasn’t just good but wise.

Most enjoyable visit to @AshmoleanMuseum with my @brookes_philos Philosophy as a Way of Life class. Always good to finish with tea and cake too! #loveHE

[Beverley Clack 🐈 📚🧶🌹🌳🏏💀 @bevclack]

Looking forward to this, and delighted that there will be cake! #failure

First Philosophy Zone of the new academic with our students talking about how to read philosophy. Sparky conversation! @brookes_philos

Congratulations to all @brookes_philos students who graduated this morning. A cohort of exceptional people who give me hope for the future. 🎓 ❤️

Philosophers on Twitter look at yourselves. Half of you seem more concerned with academic journal rankings than the nature of reality or how we should live. What would Socrates say?

[noam chompers @NoamChompers]

Sorry, I forget, is analytic philosophy the good one or is it continental?

#friendshipday
@bevclack @brookes_philos @ResearchHSS: The model of friendship, both personal and conversational, can reinvigorate the practice of philosophy and also the university as a place for deep learning.
