Course Description
Existentialism is an introduction to the philosophy concerning existence and the meaning of life. It is often merely an introductory philosophy course because of the general lack of background in philosophy. Students are dedicated to fierce debate about abstract theories and trying to figure out what existentialism actually is without admitting they don't know. Readings may include Kant, Nietzsche, Sartre, Kierkegaard, Camus, Dostoevsky, Beckett, Heidegger, and a smattering of the rest.

Karl! EXIT.CAR.19.2 Famously, we finally got to Sartre in the last hour of class time, to no fault of instructor Karl or TA Cody. We were just dummy stupid. Thanks to the presence of two theater kids Braden and Bailey, the class was particularly musical, complete with a song with harmonies for our TA and entertaining singing sections in Faust.
