Here’s an interesting article about the benefits of fandom.
Do you think being a fan is benefit? Do you think, as one study indicates, that it makes you less “prone to depression, anger, and stress?”

PHI 103-1 @ 11 am and PHI 276-1 @ 1pm are canceled for today, Monday Sept 8 due to illness.
Please prepare for Wednesday’s class as you would have for today’s class: we’ll pick up where we left off. Any papers that would have been handed in today, will be collected on Wednesday.
For now, I am NOT canceling PHI 103-2 at 6 pm. I am hoping to feel well enough to make it.
Please email me with any questions or concerns.
