The call for papers for the 2010 meeting of the Southern Society for Philosophy and Psychology has been posted. The conference will take place from April 15-17 (Thursday through Saturday) in Atlanta, GA.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
Hooray, it doesn’t conflict with the Pacific APA! Looks like a great program, Dan – well done.
Yes, avoiding that conflict has become a goal for the SSPP. You can now plan on it not conflicting with the Pacific APA. Dates for 2010 (in New Orleans!) don’t conflict. SSPP will now typically be around the first or second week of April.
We have also been fortunate in having a string of excellent program chairs, continuing with Dan!
And SSPP will no longer conflict with Easter either. Next year 2010 is in Atlanta, and then it’s 2011 that is in New Orleans. Unfortunately, next year will conflict with the Tucson Consciousness Conference, so we’ll have to try to avoid that conflict in 2012. There’s always too much to do. Dan’s put together a great looking invited program!
