Invitation and Call for Papers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

We invite all undergraduate students who have a variety of philosophical and religious interests, from the novice to the maturing critical scholar, to submit papers to the Twenty-fourth Annual Truman State University Undergraduate Philosophy and Religion Conference. We ask students to take the challenge of submitting their original work to the conference with the potential of sharing their thoughts with other interested intellectuals from different areas of the country and different areas of expertise.\u00a0 The conference is extraordinary in that it places the undergraduate as a central focus and demands strongly that there is scholarly activity at the undergraduate level worthy of presentation and praise.<\/p>\n

Papers from any area of philosophy and\/or religion are welcome.\u00a0 Papers should be no longer than thirty minutes reading time (approximately ten to fifteen pages), including time to respond to questions.\u00a0 A review panel of Truman State University undergraduates will select the program.\u00a0 Submissions should be sent to<\/p>\n
