Nautical Terminology
Despite various press reports to the contrary, Greg Albright is not at sea this semester. He's close to it, though, being based in Mystic, CT for a Williams College semester-long program that will, to be fair to those erroneous press reports, have him out on the water for a good amount of time. He joins fellow Swatties Sam Schneider '09 and Nicole Singer '10, both of whom he hopes will guest star in this venue, particularly when he has papers to write and/or meals to cook. For more information on the program, visit http://williams.edu/williamsmystic/ or read the column. See a list of columns.

The Fringe Moderates
We seek to use political philosophy as a lens through which to view contemporary politics, society, and culture. We think that philosophy is of little practical use unless applied to the world as it exists and will therefore attempt to use a moderate, pragmatic approach to our discussions and critiques. We want to make plain the philosophical assumptions that often go unnoticed in everyday life but that serve as the foundation for our political and social actions.
We call ourselves fringe moderates because we feel that represent a small minority both within the Swarthmore community and in society as a whole who advocate for a more robust sense of compromise and closer examination of political life. See a list of columns.
