Founded at Cornell in 1891 with an endowment from Henry W. Sage, the Philosophy programme at Cornell always offered courses, seminars, workshops, reading groups, and informal common-room discussions that are a vital part of intellectual life at Cornell.

Philosophers at every level and in every area of intellectual endeavour find opportunity to engage with great philosophical ideas and problems and develop the critical and analytical skills necessary for advancing our understanding of them.
