This is a philosophy school, heir to the traditions of the Greek scholars who convened in porticoes, gardens and other public spaces to talk and learn. The Garden of Philodemus really existed (although perhaps not under this name) and followed the teachings of Epicurus and his school. This group is open to all ideas and arguments are welcome; they must only be kept within the boundaries of AW's Code of Conduct.
