Philosophy for Children

In the fall of 2014, President Lynn Pasquerella ’80, along with psychology and education professor Lenore Reilly, taught a community-based learning course called “Philosophy for Children.” In this course, students learned how to conduct discussions of philosophical questions among elementary school children using picture books. Along the way, they delved into a range of philosophical issues. Here, President Pasquerella and Lenore Reilly pose at the end of the semester with the students in the course. – See more at: http://alumnae.mtholyoke.edu/blog/mhc-moment-january-2015/#comment-89914.  (Editor’s note:  Aren’t we lucky!  Ms Pasquerella always makes me proud to be an alum.)
