Structure of 2021 UCiP
The virtual 2021 Undergraduate Conference in Philosophy will occur through two zoom meetings: Room A and Room B.
Presentations on Saturday and Sunday begin at 9:00 am EST.
Each 50 minute session will be followed by a 10 minute break to move around and stretch. These 50 minute sessions are broken down as follows:
- Presentation: 20 minutes

There will be a one hour break for lunch on Saturday and Sunday from 12:00-1:00 pm EST.
Our Keynote will be delivered by Dr. Carol Hay from the University of Massachusetts-Lowell in Room A at 1:00 pm EST. We will have a quick 10 minute break at 2:00 pm EST, followed by an extended Q & A session with Dr. Hay. Presentations will begin again at 3:00 pm EST.
Attending 2021 UCiP
UCiP is open to the public, so share the meeting links and flyers with friends, family, peers, and mentors!
A few notes about attending our Zoom meetings:
- you'll be muted upon entry
- you'll be able to rename yourself
- you're encouraged to provide your pronouns if you're comfortable
- please be respectful and aware
- no moving or distracting backgrounds
We want you to keep several things in mind during Q & A sessions:
- the chair of each session will facilitate the Q & A session
- only ask questions during the designated Q & A time
- ask questions by using the raised hand reaction or type it into the chat
- questions typed in the chat will be given priority
- questions typed in the chat should be sent to everyone
- keep yourself muted until the chair calls on you
