Jeremy Shipley
I am a philosopher who studies the history and philosophy of mathematics and topics in epistemology related to probability theory.
I studied philosophy and mathematics at Coe College, receiving a BA with a double major, at Northern Illinois University, receiving an MA in philosophy, and at the University of Iowa, where I completed my PhD. I conducted postdoctoral research on the Russell/Poincare polemics on the foundation of geometry at the Archive Henri Poincare at Univerite de Lorraine in Nancy France.
I now teach Logic, Introduction to Philosophy, and Ethics at Volunteer State Community College. This is a teaching intensive position with a 5/5 teaching load. I very much enjoy teaching, and this work is as fulfilling to me as is my research.
I spend my spare time with my lovely family, as well as bicycling, swimming, cross country skiing (not so much since moving south), weightlifting, and backpacking. I think, a lot, about whether and how we will stop changing the climate, and I worry about what will happen if we don't.
