Andrew Hill

NVC Graduation 2012:
Instructor Andrew Hill

Picture
NVC Graduation 2012
My name is Andrew Hill, and I teach philosophy at Northwest Vista College (NVC) in San Antonio, Texas where I live with my wife and young son.

I have taught a wide range of undergraduate, graduate, and law students:

    • Introduction to Philosophy (PHIL 1301)
    • Introduction to Ethics (PHIL 2306)
    • Media Law and Ethics (EA 4396)
    • International Law & Treaties (IR 6346) 
    • International Legal Systems (IR 8324)
    • The Law and Ethics of Mass Communication (CM 9324)

I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Philosophy from St. Mary's University (TX), and a Master of Arts degree in Philosophy from the University of St. Thomas (TX).  I also hold the Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from Loyola University (LA), which awarded me the Gillis Long Poverty Law Center Community Service Award in 1997.

My current doctoral studies about the foundation of human rights in Ireland led me to spend a year (2010 - 2011) volunteering as the Project Administrator for Corrymeela, a peace and reconciliation centre in Northern Ireland. During this time, I was part of the team that planned and executed the 2011 Irish Peace Centres International Summer School, called "Capturing and Sharing the Learning," and also the 2012 Lilly Fellows Program Summer Seminar for College and University Teachers, called “Teaching Peace and Reconciliation: Theory and Practice in Northern Ireland.”


Today, at Northwest Vista College, I serve on the International Education Committee, and the Peace and Conflict Studies Committee.  I also have helped to organize a weekly "brown bag" lunch series of informal conversations about Ethics across the curriculum, and given my extensive background in Service Learning, I have provided support and training for the Office of Interdisciplinary Studies at NVC.

As part of my research, writing and teaching, I keep returning to the fundamental question: 
                                                                 "What is Justice?" 
This is famously "Question 58" for St. Thomas Aquinas in his work Summa Theologiæ, and thus the name of this website.  If you have any further questions, I can be reached at: ahill76@alamo.edu
