We will be considering submissions from across the UK, and on any philosophical topic, from undergraduates in any degree programme. As with the last conference, I\u2019m currently emailing philosophy departments across the country in order to encourage submissions, and I would be very grateful if you could circulate information about the current call for papers among undergraduates. I\u2019ve attached our poster, which has all the important information on it. Submissions can be up to 3000 words in length, though there is a soft word-limit, in that longer submissions will be considered if they are particularly outstanding. The deadline will fall on the 15th of January, with the conference to follow a month later, on February the 15th.
