Dear all,
We are pleased to announce the Michaelmas 2015 term card for the
Cambridge WiP Group:
19th October, 12-2pm, Board Room, Faculty of Philosophy
Welcome social and introduction to being a woman in philosophy with
Prof. Rae Langton (Cambridge)
Rae’s talk and discussion will be followed by a *FREE LUNCH* to welcome
new and returning students to WiP.
All welcome!
9th November, 12-1pm, Board Room, Faculty of Philosophy
Dr. Emily Ryall (Gloucestershire): Feminist Philosophy of Sport
As usual the talk will be followed by further discussion over lunch.
23rd November, 5-6pm, Board Room, HPS
Prof. Catherine Rowett (UEA)
Has it served ancient philosophy well to be in the grip of analytic
approaches to philosophy?
As usual the talk will be followed by further discussion over dinner.
Everybody - from any department or gender - is welcome to attend. The
fact that the group is open to all is important to us. We are still
discussing whether to retain the current name of the group (Women in
Philosophy), or change it (to something like Gender and Philosophy) and
we hope to be in touch with dates for future discussions. We have
decided to start having (at least annual) meetings in which we, and
future organisers, discuss the aims of the group, so that this issue is
kept alive and debated. As ever, we welcome any thoughts on this; please
do email or talk to any of us.
WIP is a cross-departmental group for undergraduates, graduates and
faculty supported by the Philosophy and HPS Faculties that aims to
provide a forum for networking and celebrating the work that women
philosophers are doing here at Cambridge and elsewhere. For more
information, see

If you have any questions, please feel free to reply to this email.
Kind regards,
Ellisif Wasmuth, Emily Dyson, and Magali Krasny
