Philosophy Conferences and Calls for Papers

The Annual Meeting of the Wisconsin Philosophical Association will be held on Saturday, March 31, 2007 at St. Norbert College. We hope that you will join us for what should be, as usual, a very interesting meeting.

Please also consider submitting a paper for presentation. Papers will be considered in all areas of philosophy including issues in the teaching of philosophy. The papers should be 10-15 pages and can be submitted electronically or by four double-spaced hard copies. The selection will be by blind review of a committee of philosophers from Wisconsin, and so we request that the cover page include the title and the author’s name and address, and that the author’s name be omitted from the rest of the paper.

To encourage more discussion and also to provide time for more papers, we will once again be using the new format that has been used for the past four years. Copies of the papers will be available prior to the meeting on the WPA web-site, and instead of reading the papers, presenters will be asked to provide a 10-15 minute informal summary of their paper. This will allow for more discussion and hopefully, for more lively and active sessions.

Papers should be submitted by February 2, 2007
