Annual Midwest Epistemology Workshop
The Midwest Epistemology Workshop (MEW) aims to advance interest in epistemology by organizing an annual workshop for the presentation and discussion of current work in the field. MEW also aims to establish a sense of community among epistemologists in the region that stimulates new research, improves its quality, and facilitates its dissemination. To this end, the workshop will be organized to encourage as much discussion and interaction as possible among the participants. Although workshops will typically be hosted by a college or university in the Midwest, all philosophers with an interest in epistemology are invited and encouraged to attend.
Purdue University will be hosting the fourth annual Midwest Epistemology Workshop. The workshop will take place in October 8-9, 2010. The keynote speaker will be Jason Stanley, Rutgers University.
We are delighted to announce that we now have sponsors for the Midwest Epistemology Workshop through MEW6 (2012):
MEW4 (2010): Purdue University, Matthias Steup.
MEW5 (2011): University of Iowa, Richard Fumerton.
MEW6 (2012): Indiana University, Adam Leite and Jonathan Weinberg.
The Midwest Epistemology Workshop is now on Facebook too!
