I was a first-year undergraduate +when the first issue was released. I look back at that day fondly. We +celebrated with a wine reception in Edgecliffe (though, to be entirely +honest, we didn't need much of an occasion to indulge in some wine!), +and there were speeches from Vera Schoeller (the society president) and +Professor Sarah Broadie, who was always a vocal supporter of PhilSoc. + +The journal has also published some fantastic work over the years, +including by authors who have gone on to be very successful professional +philosophers. The very first issue included pieces by Marcus Rossberg +and Philip Ebert (now professors at Connecticut and Stirling, +respectively) and a special contribution from Duncan Pritchard (now UC +Irvine). Later issues included Andreas Stokke (Uppsala), Fenner Tanswell +(Technical University Berlin), Steffen Koch (Bielefeld) and Michael +Hicks who is currently my colleague at the University of Glasgow. I was +a co-editor (with Kyle Mitchell) for volumes II and III. I was also +tasked with designing and formatting (which, unfortunately, was not my +forte).
