Note: This course may be revamped slightly in light of changes for 2025-26 in the Logic & Composition sequences.  See the Recommended Course of Study for details.

This is a somewhat abbreviated version of the full-year Logic 1 class intended for new students who need to shore up their foundation in logic before moving on to Logic 2. Students study forms of correct thinking, using traditional Aristotelian tools such as the square of opposition and the rules for checking validity. Students also review the common logical fallacies to avoid.
