The School of Philosophy boasts what are arguably the best facilities of any philosophy program in the US. It is housed in Mudd Hall of Philosophy, a building in the Tuscan style featured in Los Angeles travel guides and numerous movies and television programs.

Mudd Hall is located on Exposition Boulevard across from Exposition Park, home to L.A.'s Natural History Museum, Science Center, Rose Garden, and Memorial Coliseum.

Besides faculty offices and classrooms, Mudd Hall contains Hoose Library, one of the finest philosophy libraries in the world, and the Flewelling Reading Room.
