PHILOSOPHY PATHWAYS
Transfer Major Preparation for local CSUs
Thus to sum up our discussion of the value of philosophy: Philosophy is to be studied, not for the sake of any definite answers to its questions…but rather for the questions themselves, because these questions enlarge our conception of what is possible, enrich our intellectual imagination and diminish the dogmatic assurance which closes the mind against speculation. Above all, through the greatness of the universe which philosophy contemplates, the mind is also rendered great, and becomes capable of that union with the universe which constitutes its highest good.

A Vehicle In Trust
To bridge the old into the new
Requires strength
To break away from the grasp
Of yesterday which has gone past
To see the new in heritage
Of parents died but still at work
From old foundations long since layed
Repatterned by a child who strayed
To build a vehicle in trust
To carry those who will and must
Break away from us at last
Before their freedom has gone past
