Tyler Burge (UCLA) and Cora Diamond (Emerita, Virginia) are the philosophers elected to the American Philosophical Society this year. The list of new members is here.  Judith Butler, who has a PhD in philosophy from Yale but teaches in the Rhetoric Department at Berkeley, was also elected.  There is more on philosophers previously elected here (and follow the links from there).

Of local interest, the distinguished mathematician Karen Uhlenbeck at UT Austin, a past winner of the National Medal of Science, was also elected to the APS this year.
