About Us: DAPS, the Dallas Area Philosophical Society, is an organization of local college Philosophy departments whose intention is to move the spirit of philosophy from the halls of academia to the realities of the community. The purpose is to engage professors, students and the community in the process of philosophical inquiry on topics of political, social and economic interest. It is meant to be a sphere of rational discourse from varied perspectives as an antidote to the increasingly divisive, ideological and emotional polemics which typifies much current public debate.
What we do: DAPS, in addition to trying to provide a nexus where professional, amateur and student philosophers can meet, organizes annual panel discussions on various topics in an attempt to provide rational analysis from a variety of perspectives. The panels include not only academics, but community members, experts in related fields and students.
