Mary Beth Willard, Assistant Professor at Weber State University, will speak at the Summer Program for Women in Philosophy at UC San Diego, and at the 20th Annual Rutgers Sumer Institute for Diversity in Philosophy. Professor Willard received her PhD at Yale University.

This is the third year that the ASA has sponsored aesthetics speakers at summer diversity institutes.

The speakers were selected by institute directors from recommendations made by a review committee of senior ASA members.
