We are an organization dedicated at promoting philosophical thought and discussion on campus. We do this primarily by hosting guest speakers who present papers for our members. However, we also have fantastic social events from picnics and parties to movie nights. Welcome all interested in Philosophy.

Philosophy students: SUBMIT YOUR PAPERS. This is a great opportunity to explore philosophy outside of the classroom and learn from students at other universities! Submission deadlines are listed following conferences.

• Society for Student Philosophers (Nov. 1, 2007)
  
• Intermountain West Student Philosophy Conference
• SUNY Oneonta Undergraduate Philosophy Conference (Jan. 2008)
