CFP: Emmanuel College's Fifth Annual Boston Undergraduate Philosophy Conference

The Emmanuel College Philosophy Club is very pleased to announce our 7th Annual Boston Undergraduate Philosophy Conference on Saturday, April 5th 2025 featuring keynote speaker, Dr. Candace Delmas, associate professor of philosophy and political science at Northeastern University and author of, A Duty to Resist: When Disobedience Should Be Uncivil, Oxford University Press (2018).

We welcome papers in any area of philosophy suitable for a 20-minute talk (4000 word maximum). Each paper will receive comments from a member of the Emmanuel College Philosophy Club (limited to 10 minutes) and will be followed by a question-and-answer session for 15 minutes. We apologize, but we will not be accepting papers from recent graduates. We strongly encourage undergraduate students from Greater Boston as well as from underrepresented groups to submit papers and to otherwise participate in the conference.

Papers must be submitted as a Word (.docx) document or a PDF (.pdf) file and be prepared for blind review.

Please include a separate cover sheet with your full name, paper title, university or college, e-mail address, and phone number.

Send papers to [email protected] by the end of Monday, March 10th 2025. Notification of acceptance will be no later than Monday, March 17th, 2025.

The Annual Boston Undergraduate Philosophy Conference is a completely student-run conference with undergraduate students handling all facets of organization and operation.
