Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have decided to move the 2020 annual meeting to an on-line format. The conference will be held via Zoom on the afternoon of Friday October 30 and from mid-morning to mid-afternoon on Saturday October 31.
Though the format will be unusual, we have a terrific slate of speakers lined up for the conference and we are looking forward to lively discussions.
To help facilitate those discussions, we will be posting papers from the presenters here in the coming weeks. We encourage participants to read these ahead of time, as doing so will promote more fruitful dialogue. Presenters may choose to read or summarize their papers.
We will also be posting a full schedule and more details about the format here soon.

Our friends at the Society for Ricoeur Studies have announced the CFP for their upcoming annual conference, which will be held on-line this year.
by nasph | Apr 14, 2020 | Uncategorized
The CFP for the 2020 NASPH Annual Meeting can be found here.
The conference is scheduled to be held October 29-31 at Florida Gulf Coast University in Ft. Myers, FL. The deadline for submissions is July 15, and we will let authors know whether their submissions have been accepted by August 1. By this date we will also make a determination as to whether or not to hold the conference in person as planned. If we are unable to meet in person, our plan is to host the conference on-line using Zoom or some other virtual meeting platform. Either way, we are looking forward to an engaging dialogue this fall.
