Philosophy at GW

<p>I know that GW is not a university known for its humanities and that it has a tiny philosophy department, but could any current/former students give a prospective philosophy major with an interest in law school some insight into the philosophy classes offered at GW? Any shared experience, positive or negative, would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Out of the philosophy classes that I took, I found only one enjoyable and thought-provoking. It depends on the professor, but, personally, I wouldn’t major in it. Not only can it be dull if the professor/students aren’t into it, it’s not a particularly applicable degree, unless you’re 100% certain you’ll do law school afterwards. If you want CCAS, I’d personally major in economics (preferred), poli sci (ok), or perhaps take classes from the business school.</p>
