I then look at alternative schemata for the notion of ‘function’ – ones derived from evolutionary theory – and argue that they are not preferable to their Aristotelian rival. I finish the paper by looking at ‘neo-Aristotelian ethical naturalism’\, in particular that of Philippa Foot\, and argue that it is not Aristotelian enough.\n\nBio: Tom Angier is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Cape Town. He works on neo-Aristotelian ethical and political theory. He is currently completing a monograph entitled “Human Nature\, Human Goods: A Theory of Natural Perfectionismâ€. It is due to be published by Cambridge University Press in 2025.

While alternative explanations for the wrong of professor-student sex have been offered (recently: Srinivasan 2021)\, I argue here that professors ought to not sleep with their students due issues relating to sexual consent and the lack thereof. I argue that apparently consensual professor-student relationships are either (1) actually non-consensual or (2) minimally involve unacceptable moral risk. To establish this\, I consider relevant sociological and psychological research regarding those relationships\, including student self-reports\, and studies of the phenomenon of delayed disclosure (and recognition) of sexual violence.

The problem of peer disagreement is normally seen as a problem about the extent to which disagreement provides one with evidence against one’s own conclusions. It is thus regarded as a problem for individual inquiry. But things look different in more collaborative contexts. Ethical norms relevant to those contexts make a difference to the epistemology. In particular\, we argue that a norm of mutual answerability applies to us when we engage in shared inquiry with others\, and precludes us from treating one another’s conflicting judgments as evidence relevant to the dispute. From this it follows that standard philosophical accounts of peer disagreement—e.g.\, the Equal Weight View and the Total Evidence View—presuppose that the disagreeing parties are in a sense alienated from one another. It’s doubtful that such forms of alienated disagreement should be treated as the central case.
