CALL FOR PAPERS
Stance seeks original philosophical papers authored by current undergraduates.

Stance welcomes papers concerning any philosophical topic. Current undergraduates may submit a paper between 1500 and 3500 words in length (footnotes may extend the word limit 500 words at most). Stance asks that each undergraduate only submit one paper for the journal per year. Papers should avoid unnecessary technicality and strive to be accessible to the widest possible audience without sacrificing clarity or rigor. They are evaluated on the following criteria: depth of inquiry, quality of research, creativity, lucidity, struggle, significance, and, most importantly, originality.

Submission Procedures:

• Footnotes should follow Chicago Manual of Style. Examples are on our website under Notes for Contributors.
