                        Hamilton College Summer Program in Philosophy
                        (HCSPiP)</a> may be for you! <br>
                      <br>
                      The HCSPiP seeks proposals from creative
                      philosophy instructors for teaching two-week
                      undergraduate seminars, June 28–July 11, 2020. 
                      Classes should be aimed at undergraduates, and be
                      active, engaging, and inclusive for all
                      participants.  We are open to proposals for
                      teaching any kind of philosophical content and
                      welcome proposals that emphasize skills over
                      content as well as ones that focus on rigorous
                      philosophical content.  We foster an atmosphere of
                      cooperation and support, passion for philosophy,
                      in a diverse community, without unhealthy
                      competition.  Proposals will be evaluated by our
                      estimation of their likelihood of generating an
                      exciting, pedagogically innovative, challenging,
                      student-centered experience for all participants.
                      <br>
                      <br>
                      We will run three classes with twenty highly
                      motivated and philosophically inclined students,
                      mainly rising sophomores and juniors, drawn half
                      from Hamilton College and half from other
                      schools.  All students will take the three classes
                      concurrently.  No college credit will be awarded. 
                      <br>
                      <br>
                      In addition to faculty and students, current
                      graduate students will serve as tutors supporting
                      faculty, students, and the program more
                      generally.  The HCSPiP will culminate, for
                      faculty, with a presentation of your work in a
                      one-day interdisciplinary pedagogy conference on
                      Monday, July 13, 2020.  <br>
                      <br>
                      Housing, meals, and up to $500 of reimbursement
                      for travel will be provided to all participants,
                      along with a $4000 stipend for teachers.  Students
                      and tutors also receive stipends and travel
                      funding.<br>
                      <br>
                      To propose a course, send a single pdf containing:
                      <ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
                        <li>A name and outline of the two-week course;</li>
                        <li>A description of how the classes will be
                          taught, your approach to the in-class
                          pedagogy; <br>
                        </li>
                        <li>A discussion of the pedagogical innovation
                          of your proposed class;</li>
                        <li>How you might use a tutor to prepare for
                          classes, during classes, or to support
                          students outside of class (suggestions for
                          particular tutors are welcome); <br>
                        </li>
                        <li>Any technology or special equipment you
                          might want to use in the course;</li>
                        <li>The names of one or two external speakers
                          that could support your course goals
                          (optional);</li>
                        <li>A budget for any ancillary items from which
                          your course might benefit.</li>
                      </ul>
                      <p>In addition, please send any relevant evidence
                        of teaching experience and excellence.  All
                        materials should go to the HCSPiP director,
