I was just wandering what are the best places to do Philosophy at both Undergrad and postgrad level?

Heres my list:

Berkeley
Bryn Mawr
Dartmouth
Harvard
Smith

Any suggestions?

You have a very good list - all those schools would be tops on my list as well. I'd also consider: Swarthmore, Carleton, St. John's College (MD), Reed, University of Chicago, Vassar, Davidson, Kenyon, Holy Cross, University of Dallas, Georgetown.

Look at a website called the "Philosophical Gourmet". It not only ranks programs, but discusses how to evaluate them in the context of an undergraduate vs graduate experience.

Is that ranking from MOST liberal to least liberal?

Are you the girl who asked a while ago if being a vampire was a good EC?

No. I live in the UK and am pretty unfamiliar with the US education system. I only recently found out what EC meant.

Rutgers, NYU, and Princeton are the best schools for Philosophy, undergrad or grad.

They call the NY/NJ metro area the best Philosophy area in the world.
