Meetings

The KPA will now host an annual meeting in the spring, and an informal workshop for members in the summer. In the past, meetings were held biannually. Calls for papers will be posted on the main page and announced through the KPA Listserv and other lists (e.g. PhilUpdates).

The KPA sponsors an annual philosophy essay contest for undergraduates attending a Kentucky college or university. The winner receives a cash award and is invited to present the winning essay at the annual meeting.
