Dear colleagues,

this is the second call for nominations 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
