Jeremy Morris is a Professor of Instruction and Graduate Chair in the Department of Philosophy at Ohio University's College of Arts and Sciences. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of Miami and is actively involved in teaching, research, and academic leadership. His office is located in Ellis 210 on the Athens Campus. Ph.D., University of Miami His research centers on epistemology, metaphysics, and philosophy of language, with a focus on indexicality —particularly how first-person and temporal indexicals like 'I' and 'now' define the limits of cognitive access. He argues that certain knowledge is inherently private and incommunicable, challenging traditional views that all knowledge must be publicly accessible. His work bridges formal logic with deep philosophical questions about self, time, and belief. His recent publications explore paradoxes in possible world semantics, the epistemology of conceivability, and the justification of belief. Themes across his articles include private knowledge , temporal privilege , semantic self-reference , and epistemic closure . He frequently presents at national conferences and is developing interdisciplinary work on 'Knowledge of the Future' with colleagues in Physics, Mathematics, History, and English. While no specific scientific awards are listed, his consistent publication record and conference presence reflect scholarly recognition. He mentors students through honors tutorials and graduate supervision, and his teaching philosophy emphasizes active reasoning, argument analysis, and real-world application in courses ranging from symbolic logic to metaphysics. He has organized reading groups in metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophy of language, fostering collaborative intellectual inquiry. His innovative teaching includes unannounced exams to illustrate philosophical problems of induction and uncertainty, making abstract concepts tangible for students.
