EarthDiverse: Intro to Western Philosophy course begins Wed 12 May

todd from EarthDiverse

Interested in Western Philosophy? Take one of our newest courses in our Adult and Community Education programme entitled "What to Think, Who to Believe? A History of Thought and Philosophy Down the Centuries." This series of eight talks in our new Philosophy series examines the whole history of Western thought from ancient times up to the present in order to shed light on our present confusions and conundrums.

Class meets on Wednesdays from 11:00am-1:00pm. The first class meets Wednesday 12 May 2021 and continues for 8 consecutive weekly sessions. The last class is on Wednesday 30 June 2021.

Both in-person classes in Hamilton and distance learning classes via Zoom are available.

For more information on this and our other history, language, philosophy and religious diversity courses, please visit our web site.

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Would you help your kids out with buying a home? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
