Seminar Announcement: "Biology and Purpose: Altruism, Morality, and
Human Nature in Evolutionary Theory," Dr. Philip Clayton, Professor of
Philosophy, Sonoma State University and Dr. Jeffrey Schloss, Professor
of Biology, Westmont College. July 2-27, 2001. Funded by the John
Templeton Foundation. APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FEBRUARY 9, 2001.
The goals of this seminar are to provide a rigorous, even-handed, and
highly interdisciplinary assessment of the current "evolution and human
nature" debates in light of theological and philosophical concerns and
new theories in population genetics, sociobiology, evolutionary
psychology, and emerging, alternative approaches. Applications from all
disciplines are encouraged, in order to stimulate publishable,
integrative scholarship that is both scientifically sound and
theologically astute.
Participants will receive a stipend of $2500 and free lodging during
the seminar. See the program web site for details and to download an
