Conference

Dear Prof. {Paul,Chalmers,Sider},

Are you able to recommend any conferences in metaphysics?


chad



I suggest you attend the Pacific APA this year and go to the metaphysics talks and anything else of interest.

Laurie



the best thing to go to would probably be a meeting of the american philosophical association (the pacific division is best but all three are OK) -- lots on every topic, including metaphysics, kant, etc.

Hi Chad,

I don't have any particular all-metaphysics conference to recommend; but the annual American Philosophical Association divisional conferences (Eastern, Central, Pacific) often have some good metaphysics talks.  The APA website is here:

Best,

Well that answers that! So what do you think, should I spend $800 and go to the Eastern division conference in Philadelphia Dec. 27-31? From what I understand Vancouver would take a lot more to get to.

my gut says don't do it. but i would bet that after prayer and fasting, or at least talking it over with Jess, you will come to an answer you feel good about.

Thanks Jer, that might be how this would happen. Half of the cost is the hotel room!
