Pathways Mentors

If you take one of the six Pathways programs you will be assigned a mentor. Your Pathways mentor is your informant and guide to the world of philosophy, your partner in philosophical dialogue.

As you will discover reading these fascinating biographies, each Pathways mentor has interests outside academic philosophy, yet all are united in their passion for philosophical thinking and their commitment to communicating this passion to others.

All the Pathways mentors are studying for, or have taken, the ISFP Fellowship award, and are members of the Ask a Philosopher panel.

If you are a philosophy graduate and would like to learn more about becoming a Pathways mentor, further information can be found here.
