My wife graduated from UCLA with a B.A> in philosophy. Imagine her chagrin at the dearth of wants ads for "Corporate Philosopher", "Entry-level philosopher wanted", etc. I suppose career opportunities are not high on your list at the moment.

I was planning to devote some time in January to studying it in isolation, but then as luck would have it (that's Good Luck!), my brother and his wife gave me a copy of "The Art of Attack in Chess", by Vladimir Vukovic. In this first official year of my retirement, I find myself able, willing and in fact eager to go back to school, in the physical, on-line and self-study senses. I am one course short of a graduate degree in Philosophy, and I just discovered that thanks to the beneficent country in which I live, when you're over 65 you can have your tuition waved, and that alone might cause me to pursue a doctorate. After decades of study, mostly informal, I have one or two things to say about Socrates and Plato. Stay tuned LOL.
