Activities and/or topics for a philosophy club?
I participated in a philosophical club, it seems that many of the other members of becomeing just sit and talk a bit tired. Usually we end up in a 3322 class, I tried to think of ways to collaborate across the group. If you are a club in his own philosophy I want to hear a typical meeting is like, or if you must do activity philosophy. I think we still have a lot of questions, but if you have a very interesting thing is that you want to share, I’m open to ideas.

One thing you can do is rotate a person who goes out and researches a topic for presentation to the rest of the group at the next meeting. It doesn’t have to be a HUGE research project, but it will promote a sense of duty on the part of the rest of the group to listen at least out of respect, but more so to edify themselves.
The presentation will be what officially kicks off the meeting. This makes everyone come together and get on the same mind set from the beginning.
Depending on the length of the presentation and the interest in the one making it, at some point the group will start to dissipate into smaller segments. The good thing is that it will do so in a more orderly fashion.
This activity also promotes more structured learning, as compared to a bunch of people just sitting around talking.
In terms of topics, I like the ones which anchor to the philosophical greats throughout history.
