Sometimes, schools, colleges and/or universities will offer philosophy classes (I believe it's quite rare for schools to do this, but it's more common among colleges and universities). Sometimes, it'll just be stand-alone philosophy; other times, it'll be combined with something else (for example, some universities offer a "Maths and Philosophy" course, while others offer one called "PPE", standing for "Philosophy, Politics and Economics"). So, have you ever taken any philosophy classes of any kind, in or out of school?
Myself, I never did: my school simply never offered it . When I was at university, I did dip my toes into it a little bit: during my final two years, I took some modules about the foundations of mathematics (covering things like formal logic and Gödel's incompleteness theorems). These modules would have straddled the borderline between mathematics and philosophy, but that's about as far into the subject as I got (and it's still a long way from a full-blown philosophy course ).
What about you?
