Philosophy and Religion Conference Accepting Papers

The 29th Annual Philosophy and Religion Conference will take place on campus from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Nov. 10 in the Student Union Building Alumni Room.

Students can now submit papers to be featured at the conference. The submission deadline is Oct. 1. Papers from any area of philosophy and/or religion are welcome. This may include fields such as classics, anthropology and others. Papers should be no longer than 25 minutes reading time (approximately eight to 10 pages).

A review panel of Truman undergraduates will select the program. If a paper is selected, the author will be asked to provide a 100-word abstract upon acceptance of the invitation to present.

Papers should be submitted to Dereck Daschke, professor of philosophy and religion, with the subject line: Undergraduate Philosophy and Religion Conference. Students should separate all identifying information, including name and school, from the body of the paper in either format – include this information only in the body of the email. The title of the paper should be listed in both documents.
