Timothy D. Loughrist
Assistant Professor, Philosophy
Bio
I was born and raised in central New York and attended SUNY Geneseo, where I graduated with an honors BA in philosophy. From there, I moved to Nebraska to study philosophy at UNL, where I completed my dissertation, Reasons Against Belief: A Theory of Epistemic Defeat, under Dr. Albert Casullo, a well know epistemologist and leading expert on a priori justification. While in Nebraska, I married Katie Segrist and we merged our names, Loughlin and Segrist becoming Loughrist. Now we are both settling into our lives as Alabamans in beautiful Florence, AL.
