I'm going to major in Philosphy at UCSB. I'm quite interested in all aspects of it, but I have to ask you guys, between continental and analytic philosophies, which is genuinely worth it?

Analytic philosophy builds around its dogmas a model of reality made of axioms and connections, that allows a certain vision of the cosmos to sustain and expand itself. Continental philosophy allows you to acknowledge this, and in doing so become a master alchemist

Disregard philosophy and study evolutionary psychology under Leda Cosmides.
Caleb Stewart
Well why would I do that, user?

I assume you're interested in truth? Understanding why we think the things we do is fundamental to that pursuit in my opinion, not to mention evo psych is data based rather than entirely speculative like philosophy. John and Leda are both at SB and they more or less founded the disipline.
Jackson Brown
These. Evolutionary psych over philosophy any day.
Luke Cox
To elaborate further, you can study philosophy anywhere, whereas having access to the founders of an extremely interesting discipline that is currently in vogue is quite rare. Having to understand statistics and data for psych is also an advantage in terms of employment, this is coming from a philosophy grad. Study philosophy too but consider a double major.
