“Brian Leiter”:http://webapp.utexas.edu/blogs/archives/bleiter/000913.html has some good advice for prospective grad students. I’d agree with all of it, except he hinted that sometimes it’s in your best interests to choose not-Cornell over Cornell. I might write more on this, and on why Cornell always beats not-Cornell, later. Or I might not.

The “papers blog”:http://www.brown.edu/Departments/Philosophy/Opp/ is up, with a new link and a few new papers. There might be some big news about the papers blog shortly.

I’m a bit behind the curve on this one, but there’s a couple of googlebombs I’d like to help out with: “Jew”:http://www.jewfaq.org/ and “Air America”:http://www.airamericaradio.com/. (For more info on the first of those links, see “Chris Bertram’s”:http://www.crookedtimber.org/archives/001631.html comment on Crooked Timber. I’m not linking to the same page as Chris did for reasons given in the comments thread on that page, but hopefully this is still helpful.)
