Philosophy professor Joe McCaffrey – in our conversation recorded in May at the end of the academic year – guides us through that broad labyrinth of meaning and purpose by sharing his students responses to the question: How might we lead good lives. McCaffrey also shares what it is to be a philosopher and how he came to be one.
Joe McCaffrey is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Nebraska, Omaha and is also a member of interdisciplinary programs in Neuroscience and Medical Humanities. McCaffrey teaches classes on consciousness, moral psychology, bioethics, artificial intelligence, and the meaning of life. Originally from Eugene, Oregon, McCaffrey now resides with his partner in Omaha. When not doing philosophy, he enjoys strategy board games and video games, reading science fiction, fantasy, and horror stories, and dinners and movie nights with his neighbors and friends.
