Notice of British Journal of Undergraduate Philosophy Day Conference and 
Second Call for Papers
________________________________________


The British Undergraduate Philosophy Society is very happy to announce 
our day conference to celebrate the launch of the British Journal of 
Undergraduate Philosophy (ISSN 1748-9393) on Saturday 4th February at 
the University of Sheffield.

Our keynote speaker is Professor Robert Hopkins (University of 
Sheffield), aesthetics and philosophy of mind specialist, author of 
Picture, Image and Experience: A Philosophical Inquiry, and many journal 
papers.

We will be hosting and discussing a series of high-quality undergraduate 
papers from philosophy students across the country, chatting over lunch, 
and showing off the first two issues of the journal! Registration for 
the day will be just 5 UKP and will be waived for those who have papers 
accepted for the conference.

To register, or for further information about the British Undergraduate 
Philosophy Society and BJUP, please visit our website - www.bups.org.

Call for Papers
-----------------------

Undergraduates at UK or Irish Universities are invited to submit papers 
of 2,000-2,500 words (15-20 minutes reading time). Preference will be 
given to papers which are:

•	carefully structured
•	argumentative rather than merely descriptive
•	clearly written

Your audience will be fellow undergraduates: expect discussion to be 
focused, but relaxed and friendly. Outstanding papers from the 
conference will be offered publication in the BJUP itself.

We are delighted to receive work in both the analytic and continental 
traditions.

Papers should be submitted via email to submit@bups.org and should be 
prepared for blind review with a separate cover sheet giving name, 
affiliation, contact details and paper title. The deadline for 
submission is Sunday January 8th 2006. Submission enquiries to info@bups.org

If you know anyone else who would be interested, please pass on the 
message. We look forward to seeing you there!
