Interesting article in the NYT about the Auburn philosophy teacher who has made something of the program there.
"Jolley says he thinks of his relationships with his students less as teacher-student than as master-apprentice. His goal, as he sees it, isn't to teach students about philosophy; it is to show them what it means to think philosophically, to actually be a philosopher."
Rodin's Thinker could afford to sit around and think; obviously no committee assignments or essays to grade. Rodin's Thinker isn't really the model here, is it?
