Wubnig essay prize -- final call for nominations

[Shannon Dea]

Dear colleagues,

This is your final reminder that the Department of Philosophy is seeking
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, 2011, 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, 2012.  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
