Dear Students,

Ex Nihilo, UT’s undergraduate philosophy journal, is announcing a call for papers for publication in the 2012 spring semester. This is a great opportunity for committed students to showcase their philosophical knowledge, writing skills, and to have a chance in being published before entering graduate school or a professional career.

The submission guidelines are as follows:

1. Length: 10-20 pages double-spaced, 12 point Times New Roman font. We will take submissions of papers over 20 pages, but those will likely be edited for brevity. Nothing over 30 pages, please.

2. Topic: Any philosophical topic of substance is acceptable–however, the paper must be philosophical. Papers written for class are acceptable so long as they are sufficiently self-sustained and insightful.

3. Format: Every paper must include an abstract. In a separate attachment, include the title of your paper, your name, email, and major. Do not include your name or any identifying information in your actual paper.

4. Submission date: All materials must be submitted to ex.nihilo.journal@gmail.com by January 17th.
