"being a person" is a predicate just like any other, at least in terms of logical symbolization. There is no difference between saying X is a cat and X is a person in terms of the underlying logical structure of language. Logic isn't describing what it is to be a person, it describes the logical relation between propositions, predicates, etc.

But seriously, logic seems like too abstract a thing to study and get a qualification in. This reminds me of those Key Skills things in British secondary schools where you can get qualifications in teamwork and problem solving.

But I'm not drinking. It's finals week and i have an exam in 2 hours.

Well you don't get a degree in logic per se. You get a degree in Philosophy and you can specialize in logic if you want. I view logic as a really useful tool for symbolizing thought, but it's not something I want to focus my studies on. Frege, Gödel , Russell, et al. really improved upon logic, and there are all sorts of logical systems that need to be reconciled, but that never interested me either. I don't know where I'm going with this reply at all so I'll stop typing.

Ah, so it's a part of philosophy. I thought it was like a standalone qualification.
