Marcella Linn

Lecturer, Department of Philosophy

Marcella Linn is Lecturer of Philosophy at Loyola University Chicago. Her research interests are in Aristotle's ethics, moral theory, and moral psychology. She combines interpretative work on Aristotle with contemporary issues in ethics and social psychology. This work addresses several areas in ethics such as moral luck, the empirical adequacy of character and virtue, and moral development. She regularly teaches "Judgment and Decision Making". This course introduces students to the many cognitive biases and situational factors that override or bypass human reasoning and the questions about human agency and moral responsibility that arise as a result.
