Hello and welcome to our very own comparative and Chinese philosophy discussion forum for graduate students. This place is designed as a low-risk environment for high-quality discussion created and maintained by and for graduate students pursuing degrees in Comparative and Chinese philosophy (CandCP for short). In the main discussion section, you will find discussion venues for three main genres of topic, for now:
Since I cannot anticipate all possible discussion topics, I will leave these as the most general divisions of the forum for now. Later on, certain themes or topics might end up dominating the board or being so frequently discussed that they warrant sub-forums of their own, which is perfectly fine. I just don't want to anticipate discussions or just create subforums for my own favorite topics, as that would be to put the cart before the horse. I'd only ask that when you start a topic, please generously "tag" it. Of course there may very well be topical overlap and ambiguous cases, but I think these three categories are at least fairly well-defined. Substantially off-topic posts will be moderated or discussed with the moderators civilly. However, incivility and misbehavior will not be tolerated, which brings me to my next point: Obviously, internet forums are not generally regarded as high-quality environments for content, so we are taking a bit of a risk by opening up this forum. As I think the most effective way of minimizing this risk, this board requires that you post only after creating account whose username is your full, anglicized name. This generates accountability so I don't need to waste time and bandwidth on a list of rules for kindergartners on how to be "civil" online. Biographical info in your profile (e.g., where you're studying) is especially welcome. |
