The Carleton University   Student Journal of Philosophy

The Carleton University Student Journal of Philosophy publishes student papers on all topics of philosophical interest. It is designed to offer students their first opportunity to publish philosophical work, and to encourage excellence in student scholarship. Submissions are welcome from both undergraduate and graduate students. Faculty members are urged to encourage students to submit papers. Acceptance is determined by the editor(s), based mainly on the recommendation of faculty referees from Carleton University.

Manuscripts should be submitted as Microsoft Word, Corel WordPerfect, or HTML files on 3.5" diskette, and must be accompanied by two hard copies. If there are diagrams, tables, figures, or other graphics, each must be placed in a separate file on the diskette in JPEG, PCX, BMP, TIFF, PICT, MacPaint, GIF or EPS format.

The editors encourage the use of a manual of style such as a recent edition of the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers or A Manual of Style (published by the University of Chicago Press). Recent issues of the journal provide examples of preferred style for notes and bibliographic entires.  (If you use footnotes or endnotes produced by Word or WordPerfect, we can automatically convert these to the endnote style used by the journal.) Anyone who is unable to submit a manuscript in the required format or who has questions about formatting should contact the editors at cusjped@carleton.ca or at the address below.

Please include the following with your diskette and hard copies:

• A completed and signed copy of the Submission Information Form, which can be downloaded here (Adobe Acrobat PDF format, Text format).
• A cover sheet which specifies at least the title of the paper but does not state your name or university. This cover sheet will be used to preserve anonymity when papers are reviewed by the editorial board and faculty members from the Carleton University Philosophy Department.
• A signed letter indicating to the editorial board that your paper has not been submitted to another journal and that you will not submit it to another journal unless we have notified you that we will not publish it.
• Your email address.

Submissions should be made by ordinary mail or courier to:
