A limited number of stipends are available for graduate students and underemployed scholars attending in person&mdash\;please indicate in your proposal if you wish to be considered.</p>\n<p>NASS strives to build an inclusive\, supportive\, welcoming environment at the conference where we can share and discuss ideas\, catch up with one another\, meet new people\, support each other&rsquo\;s work\, and further Sartrean scholarship. In person attendance is imperative for this sense of community and comradery to be built and sustained.&nbsp\;<strong>Thus\, we strongly encourage in-person attendance at the conference if possible.</strong>&nbsp\;We simultaneously realize that travel may be difficult or impossible for some who wish to participate and thus reserve a limited number of virtual presentation slots. The limited number of virtual presentations will depend on overall submissions numbers and the society&rsquo\;s ability to create a well-rounded conference. If you wish to be considered for a virtual presentation\, please indicate as such in your proposal.</p>\n<p>All proposals will be reviewed by the program committee. We look forward to your submissions!</p>
