CFP: The 17th Annual UAPA Graduate Student Conference (2025)

We invite graduate students to submit papers on the subject of Pop Culture and Philosophy approached from any philosophical lens. For instance, the paper could be written through the lens of Aesthetics, Ethics, Social Epistemology, etc. Papers should be suitable for a 25 to 30 minute presentation (approximately 3,000-4,000 words).

All submissions should be prepared for blind review and should include a separate document containing the following information: your name, paper title, an abstract of approximately 150 to 250 words, institutional affiliation, e-mail address, phone number, and where you saw this call for papers. Please submit papers via e-mail with “2025 Conference Submission” in the subject line. Acceptable formats are MS Word documents, RTF files, or PDF files.
