Conference Statement:
Broadly conceived, the purpose of =93Building Bridges=94, the Southern
Illinois University at Carbondale Graduate Student Philosophy
Conference, is to bring into dialogue diverse elements not commonly
associated. We seek interdisciplinary as well as intra-disciplinary theme=
s

different traditions, or in which two or more thinkers not customarily
brought into conversation are compared. Furthermore, papers that
approach issues from both Western and Eastern perspectives or those that
speak from a Continental, Anglo-American, and Pragmatist standpoint
are desired. Our goal is to provide a pluralistic forum for constructive
