The document discusses virtues exhibited by philosophers in the classroom. It notes that in the past, victory in philosophical arguments went to those who spoke with the greatest conviction, even if they lacked subtlety of mind. It questions what virtues academic staff believe they exhibit during live philosophy events and what students actually see. It argues that feeling like one could belong is important for success and happiness in education. The document considers the "signature pedagogy" of philosophy and how virtues like patience, trust, pride, humility, gratitude and forgiveness are needed for thinking together.
