Dear colleagues,

this is the final call for the Judy Wubnig Essay Prize in Philosophy.  There
are two such prizes -- one graduate and one undergraduate -- each valued at
$500.  Essays from any discipline are eligible, so long as those essays
concern the history of philosophy, broadly construed.  If one or more of
your students submits/submitted an eligible essay to you in the period
spanning Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2010, please nominate her/him/them for the
award by sending me a copy (electronic or paper) of the essay(s) by no later
than * Feb. 20, 2011*.  The terms of reference are reproduced below for your
information.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any
questions.

Sincerely,
Shannon Dea
