            <description><![CDATA[My name is James Harmon. I am a PhD student in English. In 2005, I received a MA from CGU in English with a Creative Writing emphasis. My major interest is in writing and literature, specifically that of Joyce, which I&#39;m planning on exploring in my disertation. I have a couple of short stories and poems published, but would like to publish even more. Currently, I teach English at Cerritos Community College and University of La Verne.&nbsp;Other interests include: music (piano), walking around (but not necessarily hiking), collecting commemorative state quarters, hats, props, and costumes, and exploring offbeat roadside attractions.I suppose as far as this class is concerned, I hope to learn a little more in the area of philosophy and was excited to hear we&#39;d be going over a little of &quot;The Republic,&quot; which I must admit, has always made me feel uncomfortable. Its not confusing, per se. But, I&#39;m not really partial to Plato, and I&#39;m hoping to gain some new appreciation of it.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[My name is Alexander Marcus, though I prefer to be called &quot;Marky.&quot; I am a Sophomore at Pomona College and I am a Religious Studies major. I&#39;m originally from Scarsdale, New York. Being 19 years old I recognize that I am probably much less experienced in education/life-experience, but hopefully I can provide a slightly different perspective to the class as well as learn from all of you. I am looking forward to exploring and discussing what happiness means, different approaches for seeking happiness, and how these approaches might differ in various world-views and from person to person. I was more interested in Aristotle&#39;s approach to happiness, which seemed a bit more focused on &#39;happiness for its own sake&#39;, achieved through an individual&#39;s virtue in relation to others, as opposed to Plato&#39;s approach which seemed more about happiness/justice in a very empirical, scientific sense and in terms of its relationship to the functioning of a state. While this aspect is important, I don&#39;t beleive that the core issues relating to happiness can be viewed in these terms.]]></description>
