Dear SF faculty:

I'll be teaching a graduate seminar next winter which welcomes SF grad
students (and interested grad students in any relevant discipline), and
which I hope will be included in the SF Designated Emphasis.  If you know
of students who might be interested, please spread the word.

*Robot and Alien Consciousness*

We will attempt to assess under what conditions we would be warranted in
thinking that a robot, AI system, or naturally-evolved space alien would,
or would not, be conscious.  Readings will mostly be philosophy but will
also include selections in science fiction, Artificial Intelligence
research, and astrobiology.

Best wishes,

Eric
