Who was Jack W Meiland?
Jack W. Meiland was an American philosopher and educator. As a philosopher, Meiland is best known for his analyses of relativism, particularly on cognitive relativism. Meiland is also known for a "salvage operation" from the "paradox of relativism", the claim that relativists be absolutists about relativism.
From 1962 to 1997, Meiland taught at the Philosophy Department at the University of Michigan, where he was appointed Arthur F. Thurnau Professor in 1988.
In the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, Meiland served as Director of the Honors Program and then as the Associate Dean for Curriculum and Long-Range Planning.
