Credits for the Philosophy Server and the Logic Lab

Thanks go to Bill Poston who first posed the possibility of a philosophy Web server. An immense debt is owed to John Archie, now at the University of California Santa Cruz, who set up the Philosophy Server and the lab computers .  As the system administrator for http://philosophy.lander.edu, he sustains security programs and patches; maintains all the services, applications, and logs; and has trained students and faculty alike on the myriad uses of the server and the Logic Lab. 

The setup and maintenance of the logic lab is also due to John Archie who is responsible for the building and installation of the computers; the networking, cabling and routing; the installation of OSs, applications, and programs; and hundreds of  hours of preparation, configuring, and tweaking. The Java Applets, MySQL, CGI, and Perl scripts he wrote make student learning in philosophy and logic interactive.  The faculty continue to be immensely grateful for his freely donated labor, insight, and implementations.

The service to the Lander Community by the Philosophy Server and the logic lab and its connection to the Lander network was ultimately made possible by the computer experts in the Office of Computing Services.  The encouragement and assistance of  Lander ITS and Mike Henderson makes our small network have an especially effective impact on student learning and enrichment at Lander University.
