NYT article on Philosophy as a Major

The New York Times had an article recently noting that many college students are opting for philosophy as a major: In a New Generation of College Students, Many Opt for the Life Examined. An interesting article... and thanks to my friend Shawn Klein for linking to this and also for giving his views on why students are opting for philosophy in increasing numbers.

I was very enthused to read the article! Yes, I think that we're finally beginning to realize that knee-jerk reactions to the consequences of certain behaviors simply don't cut the mustard; rather, there is a much deeper problem of ideology associated with all that we seek to overcome for the better.
