Summary
Within the folder containing the notes he had taken of Whitehead's first course of lectures throughout the academic year 1925–5 were found these notes W. E. Hocking had taken for at least some of the meetings of Whitehead's first ‘seminary’ – Phil 20h, ‘Seminary in Metaphysics’. Whitehead himself explained in a letter to his son, North, that these were typically held on Friday evenings, and included primarily graduate students in philosophy as well as some colleagues. For reasons we have not uncovered, these notes include only four sessions, in October 1924.
