Prizes & Awards

Barbara & Jeffrey Bartlett Prize in Philosophy

The award recognizes superior scholarship in philosophy. Established in 1995 by Jeffrey and Barbara Stearns Bartlett, both class of 1965. The Chicago-area business executives met in an Intro. to Philosophy course at Beloit, and Jeff majored in the discipline. He calls philosophy the “pearl of the liberal arts” because it gives people the intellectual ability to go wherever they want.
