Don Fallis and Kay Mathiesen, philosophers currently at the University of Arizona’s School of Information, have accepted offers from the Department of Philosophy at Northeastern University.

Professor Fallis works in epistemology, information ethics, and the philosophy of math. He calls his research area “adversarial epistemology,” and has written extensively on lying and deception.

Professor Mathiesen works in information and computer ethics, social and political philosophy, and social epistemology. She is currently working on a project called “Informational Justice.”

They take up their new positions at Northeastern in the fall.
