Below the fold is the call for papers for this year’s Western Canadian Philosophical Association meetings. I thought it might be of some interest to the Soupers.
Call for Papers
Western Canadian Philosophical Association
2008 Annual Meeting
Hosted by the University of Alberta
October 24-26th 2008
Keynote Speaker
Stephen Darwall

Papers on any philosophical topic are welcome. Electronic submissions only, .pdf is preferred. Please include in your submission the paper (maximum 4000 words), a short abstract (maximum 150 words), and your name, e-mail, and academic affiliation (if any).
We also welcome, and indeed encourage, proposals for panels and author-meets-critics sessions. All such proposals should include a theme and abstracts of proposed papers (abstracts for panel papers should be 750-1000 words). Please also include the email addresses and affiliations of potential participants. All participants must be committed to attending if the proposal is accepted. We will present a student essay prize for the best student paper presented at the meeting. If you are eligible for the prize, please mention this with your submission.
Please send submissions to wcpa08@ualberta.ca by July 15, 2008. We will also be soliciting commentators, so we welcome self-nominations at the same address.
