WRPPF meetings are always a wonderful opportunity for postgraduates to hear about and discuss whatever is interesting in the philosophical work that postgraduates are up to in the four major Yorkshire universities.

All postgraduates, taught and research, full- as well as part-time, are equally encouraged to attend. Their travel expenses from York to Hull will be paid for by the Forum, courtesy of the York Annual Fund.

The meetings are also a great chance for both taught and research postgraduates to hone their conferencing skills (whether in presenting, following or commenting on papers, or networking with colleagues). If any of the postgraduates are interested in giving a paper, please let me know!

Details are always available on the WRPPF website at http://tinyurl.com/wrppf

Location: University of Hull, Staff House, Room CR2

Admission: All Philosophy postgraduate students, full-time and part-time are welcome
