[Vision2020] Joe Campbell promoted to Professor (was: ...Statesman)

[Gier, Nicholas]

Greetings,

Thanks, Ken, for letting the Vision know about the very fine volumes that have been published over the years coming out of the annual Inland Northwest Philosophy Conference held at WSU and UI.  The editors of these volumes and a few more individuals have made this conference a world-class meeting for cutting-edge philosophy.

I've attended many of them and presented papers.  My paper on Buddhism and Free-Will is in the volume entitled "Freedom and Determinism."

Congratulations, Joe, for your scholarship and your leadership in our profession.

Nick

Why are college books five times the price of other books? Who has $70 for each book? Especially when you can get all that information for free online or at your local library.

Congratulations!

Now, if the level of book sales would rise up a bit (or maybe a lot) life 
would be even better. You may be sufficiently polite, or modest, to not mention 
the products with your name on them available from MIT Press, for example, but 
on the occasion of full professorship, I am not averse to mentioning some of 
the reasons for the promotion.

Those who need some good reading material for any time of the year, but 
especially handy in winter time when other activities are restricted, may wish 
to check out the titles with Professor Campbell as author from MIT Press:
