It seems @SCMStudies acceptances are going out !

You will hear from us soon about the process for requesting a Philosophy & Theory SIG sponsorship, but in the meantime let us know about your panels/roundtables !

See you in Chicago, Philosophers and Theorists 🫡

A member has alerted us that they received a email claiming to be from SCMS organizers, but which is, in fact, a scam—please check that any email you receive about the conference is from a email address you recognize.

Stay vigilant, philosophers and theorists 🫡.

Congratulations @bernardionysius !!

[SCMS Philosophy & Theory @SCMSPhilosophy]

Thank you to all who voted in the recent Co-Chair election, and especially to our excellent candidates--Will Brown and Bernard Geoghegan. We were extremely proud to present the SIG with two amazing candidates.

[SCMS Philosophy & Theory @SCMSPhilosophy]

After a very close race, Bernard will now serve as Co-Chair. He will replace Shane Denson @medieninitiativ, who we would like to thank for all that he has done for the SIG during his three years as Co-Chair.
