The Northwest Student Philosophy Conference (NWSPC) is organized by undergraduate students and aims to showcase the philosophical research of undergraduate\, graduate\, and professional philosophers. \; In the last several years\, we have been privileged to host Alex Guerrero (2014)\, Meghan Sullivan (2013)\, Carrie Jenkins and Jonathan Ichikawa (2012)\, Kris McDaniel (2011)\, Ben Bradley\, Shieva Kleinschmidt\, and \;Laurie Paul \; (2010)\, Kit Fine (2009)\, Michael Rea (2009)\, Dean Zimmerman (2008) and Jonathan Schaffer (2007) as keynote and guest speakers. \;
\nThis year\, our conference takes place Memorial Day weekend\, May 22-24. We are pleased to announce that Heather Demarest from the University of Oklahoma will be delivering the keynote address. All students &ndash\; undergraduate\, masters\, graduate &ndash\; are invited to submit \;papers. Entrance is fairly competitive as we have only 6-8 open slots \;for \;student presentations\, this should not discourage interested applicants. \;Papers \;can be on any philosophical topic\, preferably no longer than 6\,000 words. Submission deadline is March 20.
\nHOW TO SUBMIT \;PAPERS:
\n1. Prepare the paper \;for \;blind review
\n2. Provide an abstract (up to 300 words) between the title and main text of the paper
\n3. Send an e-copy as an attachment (either as word document or pdf) to Ryan.Wasserman@wwu.edu
\n4. In the email to which the paper is attached\, provide relevant contact information: Name / Institution / Email / Phone \;
