Student Philosophy Conference program

What type of conference is this?

A one-day student conference open to the whole CSUN community. There is no need to be a Philosophy major or minor to submit a proposal or to participate in the conference. The program will be organized around the presentation of about six student papers (which will be selected by a philosophy faculty committee in a blind-review process). Each invited author will have 15 minutes to present, and each presentation will be followed by a commentary by a faculty member as well as by a general discussion open to all conference attendants. The conference program will also include, among other things, one alumnus and one faculty keynote speaker, and a session with guest non-philosophy faculty speakers on the relevance of philosophy in other disciplines. We will end with a barbecue in Northridge Park and Recreation Center.
