Does the Department have a philosophy journal for undergraduates?
An Undergraduate Philosophy Journal, Juvenilia, was published for the first time in Spring 1995. The Spring 2002 issue, now named Agathon was published in May 2002. Samples of the previous issues may be viewed in the undergraduate lounge, 822 Heller Hall. The entire editorial staff acts as a committee to conduct a several-stage process of blind review of the submissions. The staff discusses each submission at length. The Journal is distributed free. Persons who are interested in serving on the Juvenilia staff may leave a note for the editors in the Philosophy Journal mailbox in the Philosophy Department Office, 831 Heller Hall, or they may speak to the Director of Undergraduate Studies to get a list of the current members of the journal staff. The staff meets approximately weekly for about two hours from February through May while submissions are under consideration. Past members of the staff have reported that it is great fun to take part in the philosophical discussions of submission
