Quarter: Winter 2025

DeWitt is a fantastic professor. She's exactly what you would want out of a philosophy professor: engages with life stories, explains the material 10x over, and is completely available for questions. There are two formal papers (a midterm and a final), as well as a total of four/five weekly one page essays to submit based on your reaction to the material. The workload is manageable, and I found that in my experience, I did not find myself having to go to every single class... I would take this class again. I don't even like Kant!

Prof. DeWitt is very nice and I can feel her passion for Kantian Ethics from every lecture of her. She has tried her best to make things clear though there is still a bit of room for improvement (sometimes she makes things too clear, which can make it hard to track where the entire discussion is going -- but this wasn't too much a problem). Would recommend and take again.
