Since 1965, the School of Practical Philosophy has had a simple mission: to introduce the benefits of Practical Philosophy to anyone who is interested. Our doors are open to anyone who seeks to understand principles that can lead to greater wisdom, happiness, balance, awareness, and effectiveness in daily life.
Our tuition costs are kept below necessary levels in order to stay true to our wish that interest in Practical Philosophy — and not money — should be the only requirement to participation. The School is a volunteer organization with no full-time paid staff. Donations to the School are essential and are used to cover basic operating expenses.
We are a not-for-profit educational corporation chartered by the Regents of the University of the State of New York. Below are a few purposes in our corporate charter.
