Edward Hinchman (Ph.D. Michigan; epistemology, moral psychology, philosophy of language and mind) also at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, will also join the department as Associate Professor. Ted's current research addresses equally the nature of judgment and belief and the nature of intention. This work extends a longstanding project on the role of trust in epistemic and practical rationality.

Michael Bukoski (Ph.D. Arizona; ethics, metaethics, and political philosophy), currently a post-doctoral fellow at Florida State University, will join the department as an Assistant Professor. Michael's metaethical work examines the prospects of constitutive metaethical theories and how the nature of agency sheds light on metaethical issues independently of constitute metaethical theories. His work in moral and political philosophy is about moral uncertainty and moral equality.
