The Utah Junto

Posted on February 20, 2009 by shaunmiller

One of my former students, Jory Francis, has started a blog which brings up interesting discussions and debates about anything and everything you want.  You can even start your own posts.  His contribution is get a lot of people in Utah involved in these discussions.  A Junto was a club established Benjamin Franklin debate questions of morals, politics, and natural philosophy, and to exchange knowledge of business affairs.  The idea is that this blog will be like a Junto but for Utah.

About shaunmiller

I have just completed a visiting position as an assistant professor at Dalhousie University. My ideas are not associated with my employer; they are expressions of my own thoughts and ideas. Some of them are just musings while others could be serious discussions that could turn into a bigger project. Besides philosophy, I enjoy martial arts (Kuk Sool Won), playing my violin, enjoying coffee around town, and experimenting with new food.

    It is, but mine has more of a philosophical bent to it, plus I’m the only one that can start the posts. At Utah Junto, anyone can post and it isn’t just philosophical, but it’s open to basically any topic.
