Here they are!

“I’m emailing on behalf of The Gadfly, Columbia’s undergraduate philosophy magazine. Each semester, we publish a print issue featuring philosophically relevant content, including essays, fiction, art, poetry, etc. from students from a variety of institutions and disciplinary backgrounds. This semester, the theme of our issue is “Membrane”, and we are looking for pitches. I’m reaching out to see if it would be possible for you to forward this opportunity to your students. If they are interested, they can submit a pitch to this link by 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, 10/5. If you have any questions about the application, please feel free to email gadflyinquiry@gmail.com. “

It is the time of year when we solicit applications to join Phi Sigma Tau, the national honor society in philosophy. In order to join, you must meet these qualifications:

You must have completed 1.5 semesters at USU;
You must have a B average in your Philosophy classes.
You must have a 3.3 cumulative GPA;
You must have completed (or are now completing) three Philosophy classes.

You need not be a philosophy minor or major.

There is a $25 initiation fee, which is sent on to the national office, and must be a check or money order (sorry about that). If you are interested in joining, please contact Charlie Huenemann (charlie.huenemann@usu.edu) by April 10.

We will have an induction ceremony and dinner this month for all members, new, old, and ancient. Details TBD.

Apply at the link below to serve as an Undergraduate Teaching Fellow in a Philosophy course next fall. UTFs receive $750 for the semester, and will help instructors by offering tutoring and in-class assistance to the students. Ideally, you have taken the class you are helping with (or something roughly equivalent), and will be able to attend it.

Applications will close on April 3.
