All submissions should be formatted for blind review and sent to Heath White, Associate Professor of Philosophy and NCPS Secretary-Treasurer, at [email protected]

In the body of your email, please indicate your name, email address, phone number, and institutional affiliation (if any). If you wish your paper to be considered for a prize (see below), please note whether you are an untenured faculty member, graduate student, or undergraduate.

Location

All sessions will be on the campus of NCSU. For those traveling by plane to the conference, the nearest airport is Raleigh/Durham (RDU).

Panels and Workshops

Panel and workshop proposals on any topic in philosophy, including its pedagogy, are welcome. Proposals should specify issues to be discussed, format (including time to be allotted), and names of presenters, and should include brief abstracts of presentations.

Undergraduate Papers

A sufficient number of undergraduate submissions will allow for a session devoted to papers by undergraduates. Undergraduate submissions should be clearly labeled as such.

Prizes

There will be a $175 prize for the best paper submitted by an untenured faculty member, a $125 prize for the best graduate student paper, and a $100 prize for the best undergraduate paper. Awarding of prizes is contingent on an adequate number of submissions.
